À propos de cette écoute
Brought to you by Penguin.
As young boys, both Jacques Rebière and Thomas Midwinter become fascinated with trying to understand the human mind. As psychiatrists, their quest takes them from the squalor of the Victorian lunatic asylum to the crowded lecture halls of the renowned Professor Charcot in Paris; from the heights of the Sierra Madre in California to the plains of unexplored Africa.
As the concerns of the old century fade and the First World War divides Europe, the two men's volatile relationship develops and changes, but is always tempered by one exceptional woman, Thomas' sister Sonia.
Moving and challenging in equal measure, Human Traces explores the question of what kind of beings men and women really are.

Interesting story but weirdly slurred narration
I am a native English speaker but I really struggled with the lack of articulation by the narrator, slurring words, eating the end of phrases, and racing through as if on a deadline. Even when, for example, a character's voice in the text is described as "clipped", it's all just slurred in the same way and -at times - barely intelligible. Several times I had to rewind in order to understand what was being said. Extremely annoying. Nearly all the characters sound the same (same voice, all slurred). In relation to the content, there are some beautiful passages, such as Olivier's final internal monologue, but in general I found a lot of the characters, especially the women, unconvincing. Not sure how much my opinion of the text has been negatively influenced by the irritating narration, however. Obviously a huge amount of research has gone into the book and overall it's very thought-provoking, but unfortunately really spoiled by the performance.
