The Prairie - A Tale


Lu par William Peck

(4.6 étoiles; 126 critiques)

The story opens with Ishmael, his family, Ellen and Abiram slowly making their way across the virgin prairies of the Midwest looking for a homestead, just two years after the Louisiana Purchase, and during the time of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. They meet the trapper (Natty Bumppo), who has left his home in New York state to find a place where he cannot hear the sound of people cutting down the forests. In the years between his other adventures and this novel, he tells us only that he has walked all the way to the Pacific Ocean and seen all the land between the coasts (a heroic feat, considering Lewis and Clark hadn’t yet completed the same trek).

a marvelous book


(5 étoiles)

But so many mispronounced words! The reader has a wonderfully expressive voice and is easy to listen to, but has pronounced so many words incorrectly that it becomes an annoying distraction to one of the great American classic books.

On chapter 14, I still can't identify a clear plot, just a bunch of stories, and not clearly expressed. To much attempt toward flowery language.
