Actor Michael Gandolfini, star of The Many Saints of Newark, brings Hemingway’s masterwork to life with an original and captivating performance in this brand-new audiobook edition of The Sun Also Rises.

In his unforgettable first novel, Hemingway artfully illuminates the plight of the Lost Generation, weaving a poignant tale of love and loss in the aftermath of World War I. The story follows two expatriates living in Paris in the 1920s: Jake Barnes, an American war veteran and journalist, and Lady Brett Ashley, an independent Englishwoman exploring the opportunities afforded by a new era of liberated women and sexual freedom. Impotent due to an injury suffered during the war, Jake must navigate his hopeless love for Brett in a changed world of waning morality.

From Parisian society’s vibrant nightlife to the ruthless bullfighting rings of Spain, The Sun Also Rises takes listeners on a powerful journey through mass disillusionment, moral bankruptcy, and elusive could-have-beens. All the while, we see both the brokenness and resilience of a generation scarred physically and emotionally by the horrors of war.

Honestly, I listened to this recording of the book for about an hour and a half and I'm genuinely surprised it ever got okayed for release. I went out an bought the physical book & found an alternative recording else where and flipped between those; it was THAT bad.

I don't want to bad mouth Tony Soprano's son or anything, but some of his accents were honestly unbearable. None were particularly good, but the English accent he used for Brett was probably the most egregious. I have a pretty high tolerance for bad accent's, but that one was comically bad. Very 'wat doo uu meean jache'. Very Funny. Very bad.

The books is great overall though, but bloody hell, get a different version aha

Great Book - terrible, terrible narration

Just a downer to have such lazy reading on a story which rolls along fine.

Narration is sloppy

When you read a good Hemingway, you feel like you’ve been somewhere unique, somewhere real. It’s a very special literary experience. ‘The Sun Also Rises” was a bolt of lightning, liberating the novel and culture in equal measure. It’s an unmissable, unforgettable classic, which deserves multiple readings or listenings.

Regarding the performance, I really liked the way Michael Gandolfini voiced the narrator’s intelligent insouciance. He really nailed it.
Only problem came when he ventured into non-American accents and non-English names, of which there are rather a lot in this novel.
This is an error of direction as much as voice-acting. But the English accent sounds like nothing I’ve ever heard, the Scots (?) was a hotchpotch of mouth sounds, and he was apparently rather uncomfortable with his French, which he also seems to have applied to certain Spanish words, strangely (eg “San Sebastián”).

However, he gets the acting of the characters really right, even in the strange accents. So it doesn’t ruin the audiobook, and for me it’s still a 4/5 star.

Comically bad foreign accents, but overall a really good rendition of this stunning work

how does the voice actor manage to sound so bored and childish and unlikeable as every single one of the characters? I'm trying this for a second time, and can't go through the very beginning. Such a great book destroyed by the audio!

worst performance EVER

Meh. When the reader didn’t try to act out the characters it was passable, but truly awful when he did

Bad accents
