La linea d'ombra (The Shadow Line) Audiobook (Unabridged)

" a me sembra veramente brutto. e conrad veramente noioso e farraginoso. chissà se ce la farò.</p>Finito. E' il vuoto o non ho capito nulla? "

" While it is not exactly exciting, it is such sublime writing that it keeps you reading, and turning the page. One of Conrad's best work. "

" Very nice autobiographical novella from one of my favorite authors about the moment one realizes one has grown up. I was in the mood for a sea tale, but got much more. "

" The use of the language is what captures you the most in this book. Not much happens as far as the story-line goes; it is the powerful use of words, able to depict mostly what is actually not happening, that does it all. "

" I read this for my dissertation chapter on Conrad. I'm not sure if I am going to include it yet, but it needed to be read. It's a funny little story that doesn't seem to lead anywhere or accomplish anything, but maybe that's the point. "

" Not my favorite Conrad work, but was hard to put down. I love the way Conrad creates and sustains suspense. "

" I not smart enough to understand this novel either. "

" I think maybe I made the mistake of reading this book too fast and thus somehow missing its subtle beauty. Maybe? It was a pretty interesting story but I didn't realize the climax was happening when it was happening so that's not so hot. "
