THE BESTSELLER THAT DEFINED AN AGE
From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Goldfinch

'Everything, somehow, fit together; some sly and benevolent Providence was revealing itself by degrees and I felt myself trembling on the brink of a fabulous discovery, as though any morning it was all going to come together---my future, my past, the whole of my life---and I was going to sit up in bed like a thunderbolt and say oh! oh! oh!'

Under the influence of a charismatic classics professor, a group of clever, eccentric misfits at a New England college discover a way of thought and life a world away from their banal contemporaries. But their search for the transcendent leads them down a dangerous path, beyond human constructs of morality.

As a non native speaker it took me some time to get used to the slightly southern, very American accent of the author, to her voice and her way of speaking , but then it was rather nice. I don’t like the voices she takes for some characters, but as she wrote the book, well, it does give us extra info about them.
Anyway, I read the book 30 years ago and I’ve listened to it again now with equal rapture.

Hypnotizing - a wonderful novel

La seule chose qui m’ait perturbée est le fait que Donna Tart elle-même ait choisie de faire les voix du narrateur (Richard). Même après 22h d’écoute c’était dur alors que le roman en lui-même était absolument passionnant

Pourquoi ce choix ????
