| | | He can do a number of voices without overdoing it or drawing attention to himself,which is important when reading a novel.
His Bouroughs/Bull Lee is better than Keifer Southerland ,who sounded more like W,C. Fields.
I picked up alot I'd either missed or forgotten, eihter because the book was
rambling or because I read it 17 years ago. |

| | | i honestly don't understand why anyone would prefer listening to a book on CD over reading it themselves if they're able
don't you effectively have two story tellers, doesn't that fuck up your interpretation of the work to a certain degree?

| | | yeah, to some extent someone else is imposing their interpretation,
even if its unabridged (as this was).
But as I get older my eyes are declining ,and

do three days of house cleaning while I listened. |

| | | on the road is one of my favourite books ever.
the characters in it are amazing, and whenever i read it, it just inspires me so much to go out and not care and see life as a complete experience. |

| | | I'm reading On the Road now and it is kind of slow, but I do think it is well written.
I'm in a beatnik phase at the moment.
