Cold Mountain is storytelling at its best. This version intelligently pares down the characters and incidents of the original, yet vividly conveys its pastoral and anti-war themes, and depiction of humans at their cruellest and most generous. It is notable that, in spite of compression, the adaptation retains the leisurely, sometimes dreamlike mood of the original. Reteller Mary Tomalin inhabits this material as Charles Frazier did in the source book. Here is a masterwork of language learner literature. “I have watched the movie, but I prefer this book,” commented one student. “You can’t stop reading it.” Used as a class reader, it is also sure to stimulate discussion and spark writing. Jane and Elizabeth Bennet are the oldest of five sisters in need of husbands, but it isn’t easy to find the right man. Are Mr Bingley, Mr Darcy and Mr Wickham all that they seem? Will pride and prejudice ever be defeated in the search for true love? Book Audio Pack 978 1 4058 6246 2 / 152 pages 978 1 4058 8004 6 LEVEL 5 CONTINUED > 45 Pagina 37
