Excellent writing and psychological insights, but I found the story hard to really engage with. I often found myself drifting away in thoughts of just about anything else than the story. Frank Muller is normally one of my favourite narrators, but this time it got a little to theatrical for my taste. Still good, but not quite his regular standard. Many have enjoyed the tale of Ahabs obsession with Moby Dick more than I did, so You probably will as well.

Extremt tråkig och långdragen bok. Detta kommer från en som precis plöjt igenom bibel 2000 som ljudbok (ingen favorit heller). Tyvärr så är denna version ganska "trasig" då ljudet ofta hackar samt hoppar fram och tillbaka. Som om de kopierat direkt från en repig skiva. Väldigt trist då Frank Muller är/var en av mina absoluta favoriter som uppläsare
