À propos de cet audio
The most famous and controversial novel from one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century tells the story of Humbert Humbert’s obsessive, devouring, and doomed passion for the nymphet Dolores Haze.
"The conjunction of a sense of humor with a sense of horror [results in] satire of a very special kind." —The New Yorker
Awe and exhilaration—along with heartbreak and mordant wit—abound in Lolita, which tells the story of the aging Humbert Humbert's obsession for the nymphet Dolores Haze. Lolita is also the story of a hypercivilized European colliding with the cheerful barbarism of postwar America.
Most of all, it is a meditation on love—love as outrage and hallucination, madness and transformation.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 682
America is a barren landscape of smoldering ashes, devoid of life except for those people still struggling to scratch out some type of existence. Amidst this destruction, a father and his young son walk, always toward the coast, but with no real understanding that circumstances will improve once they arrive. Still, they persevere, and their relationship comes to represent goodness in a world of utter devastation.

At the dawn of World War I, a young academic named John Maynard Keynes hastily folded his long legs into the sidecar of his brother-in-law’s motorcycle for an odd, frantic journey that would change the course of history. Swept away from his placid home at Cambridge University by the currents of the conflict, Keynes found himself thrust into the halls of European treasuries to arrange emergency loans and packed off to America to negotiate the terms of economic combat.

Boisterous, ribald, and ultimately shattering, Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest has left an indelible mark on the literature of our time. Turning conventional notions of sanity and insanity on their heads, the novel tells the unforgettable story of a mental ward and its inhabitants, especially tyrannical Big Nurse Ratched and Randle Patrick McMurphy, the brawling, fun-loving new inmate who resolves to oppose her.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 29
Born in 1951 in an affluent Tokyo suburb, Hajime - beginning in Japanese - has arrived at middle age wanting for almost nothing. The postwar years have brought him a fine marriage, two daughters, and an enviable career as the proprietor of two jazz clubs. Yet a nagging sense of inauthenticity about his success threatens Hajime's happiness. And a boyhood memory of a wise, lonely girl named Shimamoto clouds his heart.

Once we were drivers, the open road alive with autonomy, adventure, danger, trust, and speed. Today we are as likely to be in the back seat of an Uber as behind the wheel ourselves. Tech giants are hurling us toward a shiny, happy "self-driving" future, selling utopia but equally keen to advertise to a captive audience strapped into another expensive device. Are we destined, then, to become passengers, not drivers? Why We Drive reveals that much more may be at stake than we might think.

Ce que les critiques en disent
One of TIME Magazine's All-Time 100 Novels
"Lolita blazes with a perversity of a most original kind. For Mr. Nabokov has distilled from his shocking material hundred-proof intellectual farce…Lolita seems an assertion of the power of the comic spirit to wrest delight and truth from the most outlandish materials. It is one of the funniest serious novels I have ever read; and the vision of its abominable hero, who never deludes or excuses himself, brings into grotesque relief the cant, the vulgarity, and the hypocritical conventions that pervade the human comedy." —The Atlantic Monthly
"Intensely lyrical and wildly funny." —Time
"The only convincing love story of our century." —Vanity Fair

Simply amazing
Jeremy Irons absolutely slayed this. This is one of the best audiobook performances I’ve ever heard, if not the best.
As for the book itself, this was a surprise. I was prepared for something completely different. It was twisted, surely, but not how the reader may expect. An instant favorite and obvious classic.

It’s hard to review a book when this is its content. But it is a unique vision everyone should experience if they can. And the narration was amazing.

It's good
I couldn't make it through Part 1 in book-form, so this was a great substitute -- Irons' narration creates enough of a buffer between you and the text to aid with discomfort re: the subject matter. The French pronunciation is good, it's very well written.

Beautifully Grotesque
Lolita is a masterclass in writing, showing you the true power of words by using the narrative to draw you into sympathy with an unsettling, loathsome character. Nabokov hides nothing but spoon-feeds nothing--attention is required--but the book is rewarding and, while not traditionally moral, will make you think.

Lovely and grotesque
Very good narration for this well written book.
I went through a myriad of emotions why I went on this journey with HH. If the subject matter isn't one that would cause you harm, I would recommend.
My only issue is the description of the novel. This is not a love story by any means.

Wow
Yes, the Narrator’s French is atrocious, but then he’s a Brit. It didn’t bother me to the point that I wouldn’t recommend this audiobook.
Great story- was hesitant when I read it was about a pedophile. I shouldn’t have been.
There’s a reason why this book is a classic.

I am pretty sure I missed parts, I'm grateful if I did. long. gross. Very convincing that it's not fiction. I'd recommend it just because it does have effect and make you think, not because it's enjoyable or entertaining
