Ernest Hemingway's In Our Time provides listeners a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age story following lead character Nick Adams through a series of short stories around the time of World War I.

It was praised by fellow authors John Dos Passos and F. Scott Fitzgerald for its precision and simplicity in its messaging.

With gruff prose and blunt dialogue that would become standards of his career, it established Hemingway as one of the most promising young American writers of his era.

      Narrator Stacy Keach sets the perfect subdued tone for this thought-provoking collection of short stories. Keach's narration fits Hemingway's simple writing style with understated accents and emotions. The stories have a complexity beneath the surface that is difficult to grasp just by listening--yet listening is a pleasure. Many of the stories feature an American character named Nick Adams at different stages of his life. Other stories offer snapshots of WWI, bullfighting, horse racing, and other topics. Keach's voice enhances the images--whether harsh, surprising, or even puzzling--without infringing on the writing. The addition of haunting music between the chapters adds to the ambience. M.M.G.
