What to expect
Beloved for nearly a century since its release in 1925, F. Scott Fitzgerald’s vintage American novel still stands as the quintessential story of the Roaring Twenties.
Nick Carraway, a newcomer to New York, tells of mysterious millionaire neighbor Jay Gatsby and his undying adoration of the lovely Daisy Buchanan.
In this new audio edition, narrators Kyle Tait and Chelsea Stephens blend to bring the Jazz Age back to life, in a duet retelling of a classic tale.
Critics Review
-
“The finest work of fiction by any of this country’s writers.”
Washington Post
-
“Kyle Tait’s solid delivery…makes the audiobook’s narration clear and well paced. In contrast to his straightforward portrayal of Nick, Tait captures the gruffness of Tom Buchanan, the husband of Gatsby’s beloved Daisy, and the whimsy of Gatsby himself…Chelsea Stephens, who voices the female characters, reveals her versatility in Daisy Buchanan’s nervous enthusiasm as compared to her friend Jordan’s languid Kentucky accent.…Both Tait and Stephens complement each other in their delivery of dialogue, and their performances make this audiobook engaging.”
