Exodus: A Novel of Israel Audiobook

" i loved everything about the book. my dad has been trying to get me to read it for years, just never had the time to sit and read. the story line is fantastic. the narrator did a great job, giving each character their own voice and accent. would recommend this book, this author, and this narrator. great job all the way around!!!! "

" One of my most favorite books. "

" A magnificent historical novel about the birth of Israel. "

" I finally finished this after many stops and starts. Parts of it were fascinating and I now feel that I have a much better understanding of the incredible hardships faced in building a new Israel. Now I find myself wondering which parts of the story are true and which fictionalized. Definitely not beach reading material (it took a lot of work for me to get through), but worth it for the education. "

" My favorite of Leon Uris' books, all of which I've loved. "

" Read when I was 19 the first time. Was so hooked I read while driving home from work one night! "

" This was a thorough (!) description of a subject I didn't know much about. I learned a lot, but have no sense of its objectivity. The style of writing felt somehow dated, and had oddly placed exclamation points which kind of bugged me. "

" Story of the formation of the Nation of Israel "

" Made me want to read a lot more by Uris. Helped me understand the courage and determination of the Jewish people. "

" Most amazing book in all aspects. I was sad to put it down. Could not get enough. "

" One of my favorites ever! "

" Can't wait to see the movie again. Again, it's not what I expected. It's dated especially with the Kitty character, but it wetted my appetite for some real history of the era. "

" Good story teller of the 60's and 70's "

" One of my all time favorite books. A must read! "

" I could have done without the crappy subplot with the American nurse. But I won't dock it a star for that because the rest was very compelling. It taught me a lot about Israel's formation that I still remember years later. (Tip: get through the first 50 pages or so before you put it down.) "

" So far, it is a great book and it is helping me to figure out the middle-east conflict. The print is very fine, though, and it is taking me a while to get through it. "

" The 80s classic on the founding of the state of Israel. Might be worth revisiting to see how it holds up after 40 years. "

" Great read on how modern Israel was created, very entertaining and even more informative. Sorry it's over. "

" I simply loved it. It's one of the best books I ever read. "

" It is amazing..I can not describe into words about this love novel "

" I have yet to find a Uris book that I didn't love. I read this one some time in the mid 70s and thought seriously about moving to Israel after reading it I was so moved by the portrail of the strength of caracter of the people. "

" The best book ever - so thrilling, couldn't put it down. "

" Wonderful story, read while I was in college (I think) "

" This book is a history lesson in addition to a compelling story. It's very relevant to current times, considering the current state of the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians "

" Very informative. Outstanding historical fiction "

" Tragic, inspiring, political, and does require an org chart so you can keep track of who's who for a while. Then I saw the movie with Paul Newman and Eva Marie Saint. I recommend you read the book first. "

" Great follow-up to The Source. "

" One of my first adult reads. Still find myself thinking about it when listening to various news stories from Israel. "
