Patton: A Biography Audiobook

" Okay - so now I've read Faulkner. Check. I listened to most of Light in August as an audiobook and was very much engrossed in the story and characters. Finished the last 130 pages or so of the paperback. I much preferred the audiobook experience. If I decide to read more Faulkner, I'll definitely go that route. "

" Faulkner was and will always remain amazing. "

" It's Faulkner in his glory, but not quite the tight, mind-blowing tightness of _As I Lay Dying_, which might be the best book I've ever read. _Light in August_ is compelling until 3/4 through, revealing a distinctive time and place, along with, perhaps, some of Faulkner's own biases. I need to find a good essay analyzing his attitude toward women. "

" Very accessable Faulkner book. Good story. Worth reading for sure. It seems like it would be a good gateway to get to some of his more difficult works. "

" Absolutely great book. Classic novel, and great characterization that sucked me into another time and world. "

" One of my favs. Not an easy read. Had to take notes throughout. "

" One of the most moving books I have ever read. I keep going back to it. "

" I liked it a lot, a murder mystery, race issues. I even wrote a paper on it, read the book and then we can have a philosophical discussion on the racial epidermal schema. "

" Faulkner struck me as much more misogynistic this time around. Still a lovely book though. "

" An amazing portrayal of mulatto man trying to make sense of his existence. "

" I need to reread this within a few months. "

" Kind of boring to read. Read this for school and bleh. But it's meaningful/profound, but so boring to read. "

" O my gosh; Faulkner. He's a wonderful writer but reading his books is tedious and at times, feels more like work than a leisurely activity. "

" Read in a college class on Faulkner. Must admit I didn't get into Faulkner enough to read many others. "

" I liked it...although I don't believe I understand a vast majority of it. It may be well beyond me at this time. "

" Faulkner is overrated. This is the only book of his I could finish. "

" Complicated, beautiful, depressing and a stunning tour de force. Loved it!!!! Terrific writing.... "

" Read Faulkner for the individual sentences. "

" This was an excellent overview of Patton's life. You saw what made this man and drove him to greatness. "

" Interesting look into a successful general. "

" brilliant analysis, among other interesting tid bits, of Patton's approach to problem solving "an imperfect plan today is better than an excellent one tomorrow" "

" I READ A BOOK!! It was very good. I may read another one... "
