About this listen

 The works of Thomas Wolfe cemented his legacy as one of the very best of the American Southern writers. Wolfe's largely autobiographical novel features Eugene Gant, who pines for a more expansive life after being born to a father whose bouts of maniacal raving are fueled by a prodigious appetite for drink.©1957 Edward C. Aswell (P)2008 Recorded Books, LLC Classics Coming of Age Fiction Literary Fiction

No Point

enjoyed some of Wolfe 's soliloquy though there was often a great deal of pointless unnecessary rambling. the use of compound adjectives was often overdone. the point of the story is a mystery. good narrator.

rambles on and pointless.

pointless rambling with no real story, hard to follow. after hours of listening I found myself questioning what was going on. does a good job of capturing the essence of the time and society.
