Tim Robbins
An undisputed masterpiece of twentieth-century literature, perfect for Fitzgerald lovers and classics collectors alike.
Set against a backdrop of jazz music, bootlegging, and lavish parties, The Great Gatsby is the story of Midwesterner Nick Carraway’s curious introduction to the decadent world of his mysterious, wealthy neighbor Jay Gatsby, whose thirst for riches is matched only by his tragic obsession with the beautiful Daisy Buchanan.
Penned in the “roaring twenties,” the novel continues to be the subject of numerous film and stage adaptations and has become a fixture in the American classroom. This dangerously propulsive tale of glitz and glamour continues to be relevant as listeners long for escapist novels—a chance to flee into Gatsby’s famed mansion and lose oneself in the rush of opulence.
The Great Gatsby audiobook is brought to life by Tim Robbins, famed American actor, screenwriter, director, producer, and musician.

I purchased this version because of my love for Tim Robbins in Shawshank. Figured he might bring some nuance to the voices or lines that I hadn't considered. Sadly, this reading is awful. He MUMBLES the final half of every sentence. Other times, he shouts, making it so that I can't get the volume right. His impression of drunk people is so over the top that the words are lost.
Funny enough, everyone in the book gets a ridiculous voice except Gatsby, who is so dull-sounding and meek that I didn't realize at first who Robbins was 'playing'.
I should've quit at the beginning, but we can no longer return cash purchases...
Wonderful story ruined by a bad performance

I tried my best to find an iota of talent in this book. Tim Robins voice dies into inaudible whisper at the end of long sentences like a chain smoker who runs out of wind. I can’t believe it’s a recommended reading for high school children in 2022. It’s money poorly spent on this book.
Untalented writer at his worst.
