Download The Sun Also Rises Audiobook

" Good book. But I definitely enjoyed more The Paris Wife by Paula McLain, a book in which she tells the story of Hemingway and his first wife Hadley Richardson (as well as many of the incidents that are somehow told in The Sun Also Rises). It is interesting to note that while Hemingway's first marriage was falling apart, he wrote The Sun Also Rises. "

" Having finished the book and read several critiques, I get the impression that Ernest Hemingway wrote a Roman a Clef about him and his friends and lots of literary theorists applied their own views and concerns to the story. "

" If only I could sit down with HIM for one hour...he is who I would invite to dinner. This exchange reminds me of his short story "A Clean Well Lighted Place"... "

" They are young, lost, rotten, privileged - even the Jew. Yet somehow it works. A farewell to charms, to the irrepetitive moment. "

" A group of flaccid nobodies not doing much of anything. "

" THIS BOOK WAS TERRIBLE! I DO NOT RECCOMEND READING THIS! "

" I read this in Pamplona, Spain, when I was 19 and full of swagger and bravado. Then I ran with the bulls and drank bag wine. What can I say, I loved it. "

" One of my favorites of all the books I had to read in college. "

" Hemingway is brilliant and he manipulated the characters emotions effectively as to manipulate my own, but damnit most of that emotion was depression and it made me need a break from Hemingway for a little while. "

" I was bored to death, if I didn't have to read it for book club, I would not have finished. How can a short book seem endless!!!!! "

" Need to dust this one off. It's been a while. Great book. "

" I may have only read 145 pages but that was enough. Definitely not a Hemingway fan. "

" This book was a tad bit slow in the beginning but by the time I got about halfway the plot really picked up and I loved it. "

" Somewhat melancholic... as is numerous other writings of his. "

" Very complex relationships with very subtle dialogue. "

" Man, they sure can put down a lot of alcohol. "

" Gli spagnoli, si diceva, non sono capaci di pedalare. "

" There is little I can say about Ernest Hemingway. He is truly one of my favorite authors. This book takes simple ideas and communicates them in a way that make you think. Loved it. "

" Dismal - had a really hard time reading this one. It's a classic, I know, but not sure why. I found the dialogue painful. Sorry Hemingway fans. "

" One of the best endings! "

" Do you love or hate these characters? It will be an interesting book club discussion. "

" Good read, Classic Hemingway. Lost generation after WWI. Good if you have lived in Spain. "

" it is fair to say that I am in love with Ernest Hemingway! I did not want this to end. There certainly wasn't any plot that was resolved; it could have gone on forever. "

" One of my greatest ten of all time. "

" Vauge, purposeless. Like the "lost generation" Hemingway writes about, I felt he himself was lost when writing this book. "

" I love this book. I'm sad it's over. It feels like the Monday after coming home from vacation. "

" What a pleasure to read a book such as this with clean declarative paragraphs. "

" can't remember, i know i liked it, but I think I was too young to understand it. Want to re-read "

" I don't know if it's me or the time that the book was written, but it took me quite a while to read this book. Nothing ever really happened. I kept waiting for the characters to truly develop and to get attached to at least one of them, but I never did. "

" How had I never read this book until now? So good. Might pick up another Hemmingway before I head to Spain this summer. "

" I liked this around the same level as A Farewell to Arms, but I just wasn't able to connect to it as much. I still envy Hemingway in his ability to say things so plainly, yet the grand symbolism he draws between Brett and Jake and the bulls is so utterly eloquent. "
