À propos de ce contenu audio

The book Elmer Gantry was the basis for the 1960 film "Elmer Gantry". The Elmer Gantry character (played magnificently by Burt Lancaster) has become a symbol of religious hypocrisy.

In short, Elmer is a drunken, womanizing hypocrite who becomes a Baptist minister, a position from which he is soon ejected. He then links up with star revivalist Sharon Falconer, who is heavily based on Aimee Semple McPherson. Throughout his career, Gantry moves through many settings and scenarios illustrating aspects of the American religion. With religion as entertainment and show business, both Elmer and Sharon are consummate performers. They are always on.

This audiobook is a hybrid with award-winning narrator Mike Vendetti playing the male characters, and professional actor Kathy Verduin playing the female roles.
