Fantastic audioplay, but is the ending cut off, or is this ending how it's meant to be, please? I must find this book and read it myself. Thank you for posting the play.
****Spoiler Alert****
I’m gutted! I had no idea he loses everything at the end🥺🥺. Still, a great book. I’ve avoided it for decades bc I’m not interested in war novels. But I guess I’m mature enough to handle it now. Thank you for making this performance available.
Man, the dialogue is sometimes so realistic, it's almost frightening.. 1:53:30 this bedside talk is reminding me of my ex sooooo hard, the way she talks and the sort of thing she says..... Of course my ex wasn't pregnant and none of the story applies, but she also whispered to me in bed "say that word again. hm .. sweet. you're sweet".
I don't have time to read so I listen to audio books while I work, but if hemingway writes so real all the time then I can see why he is considered one of the greatest.
Who did the narration for this?
Does anyone know who the voice actors are on this production?

Thank you so much!
is this the complete novel?
Not word for word, a lot of stuff is cut down
Yeah, it's missing the major passage that is well known: going something like "If people bring so much courage to this world, the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them...The world breaks every one, and afterwords many are strong at the broken places. But those who will not break it kills. It kills the very good, the very gentle, and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too, but there will be no special hurry." Interestingly, I noticed that very near the end in this version there was a vague reference to Catherine being "broken" and something that reminded me of this passage which I don't recall from the book itself--at least the one I read. It's probly there, I just don't remember. This is outstanding voicing and production quality though to be sure, and I think the plot was clearer with some stuff left out. This was what I'd call a radio play since they did so much with sound effects etc. Well arranged, I just kept waiting for the passage I like to come up one of the nights at a hotel, but then it didn't and the baby was arriving and I remembered how it surprised me in the original book version that mother died, because when they explained that the baby died, I thought it just couldn't be a double tragedy--but it was--that is what made this book so impactful, like Old Man And the Sea--they are both different kinds of studies in the loss of everything for certain different reasons. There is a kind of depressive frivolity in this book that somehow reminds me of Death of a Salesman--obviously different author--and I'm not saying it is thematically related--just somehow the tone. But Hemingway is my favorite author because of Old Man and the Sea and this novel. Final note: thinking about Catherine as being the one who was broken, I think we're talking about the very gentle or the very good (or maybe even the very brave?), and that they are probably the ones which must be killed to be broken--but I find most interesting the question of in what way was she unable to be broken, such that the world had to kill her to break her? Well, thinking about the theme of love there seems to be an interesting irony drawn where-in the ones with the most special kind of courage amidst the backdrop of terrifying war were a deserter and his committed wife. In a way it was her perfect affection for an imperfect man that couldn't be broken--so her body was instead.@@Milo-ds5ge
Sound effects utterly ruined this.
