Trinity

De: Leon Uris

Narrado por: John Keating

Leon Uris’s beloved Irish classic

From the acclaimed author who enthralled the world with Exodus, Battle Cry, QB VII, Topaz, and other beloved classics of twentieth-century fiction comes a sweeping and powerful epic adventure that captures the "terrible beauty" of Ireland during its long and bloody struggle for freedom. It is the electrifying story of an idealistic young Catholic rebel and the valiant and beautiful Protestant girl who defied her heritage to join his cause. It is a tale of love and danger, of triumph at an unthinkable cost - a magnificent portrait of a people divided by class, faith, and prejudice - an unforgettable saga of the fires that devastated a majestic land...and the unquenchable flames that burn in the human heart.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Leon Uris uses history as the raw material for legend in his powerful novel Trinity, a tale packed with romance and adventure." (Philadelphia Sunday Bulletin)

"The story has a kind of relentless power, based on the real tragedy of Ireland, and Uris’s achievement is that he has neither cheapened nor trivialized that tragedy." (New York Times Book Review)

"An honest Irish story, emotional, full of...tales of Irish heroes and fools, of God, fear and superstition, of love and hatred, poverty and greed." (San Diego Union-Tribune)

Heartbreaking in the best way

Prepare yourself to fall in love, and mourn the death of the fictional men you cannot help but be proud of.

finally a new rendition of the best book ever

John Keating intones Uris' book with a true Irish narration. I actually own the 1978 version and have listened to it 10 times. This is the eleventh. The book covers and uncovers the Irish story. Cant wait to get Redemption read by Keating as well. Unfortunately I am at the end of this eleventh reading and will have to let a year or so go by before number 12

Great book. Great story.

This was a fabulous book. The characters were terrific and the story compelling.

I hope there will be an unabridged version to its sequel “Redemption” soon.

Thanks.

Blessed be the plight of the Irish people

Uris is a monster writer, and this his masterpiece! I loved this book as much as my Dad told me I would.

The Irish

Thoroughly enjoyed learning about the Irish catholics... better Understanding of their battle for recognition and freedom.

The words live

The narration the best ever. I love audio books but this the best of all!

A MUST READ for all Irish Americans

I'm so glad this book finally came out as an Audiobook. It is essential reading for Irish Americans.
The narrator was excellent and used enough of his Irish accent to understand the phrases and intonations without being confusing to non Irish.

Everyone loves Ireland

This is a heartbreaking story of Ireland. Everyone loves Ireland except the Irish and the Brits. My heart basically hurt through the whole thing. I kept telling myself it was just a book, but it's not just a book. This is most likely the way it was and probably still is in many ways.

Che roba...

Sono cresciuto in Irlanda. Secondo me, neanche i miei amici irlandesi possano capire la storia di Irlanda senza aver letto libri come questo. I miei posti preferiti li hanno raggiunto ancora piu anima dopo aver letto questo libro.

Leon Uris is a terrific storyteller

I read the book about 40 years ago, and listening to it brought back all the range of emotions felt the first time. Leon Uris captures, to me, Ireland during a difficult period through the lens of Conor Larkin who shows us the struggles that the Irish people faced between themselves and English control.
