Resumen del Editor

The brilliance of this story is in how a normal bureaucrat, a judge in this case, has a small accident that winds up gradually taking his life. As he deals with this incident, with hope at first and then despair, he comes to terms with his family, his life, and the mediocrities that we all suffer with, except for the exceptional few. This story rings a particularly poignant note for those in early middle age facing the next part of their lives. This story is considered Tolstoy's best.

Made Me Think and Sometimes Shutter

I've listened to the “Death of Ivan Illyich” several times and every listen gives me a new prospective in the process of dying and death. Not just the dying of an individual, but the accurate feelings, needs and self protecting aspects of those around the dying. It’s marvelous how Leo Tolstoy taps into the truth of the human heart.

A masterpiece

Leo Tolstoy is one of the greatest writers of all times ... this book is very unique ... through a smiple but incridably well written story all the questions of life, death, right and wrong are raised and challanged...

Must read/ listen

Everyone alive will, at some point, ponder death.
This prepares you for that discussion with yourself!

The narrator almost makes listening impossible...

Would you try another book from Leo Tolstoy and/or Bill DeWees?

The only saving grace for this Audio book is the story itself. Bill DeWees is awful and lifeless. For a period of time I thought it was a computer generated voice and then realized it was a person. I struggled to listen to this lifeless narration.

I spent five minutes motionless after it finished.

Everyone should read this book at least once in their lifetime. I just hope I don't feel the same way when I go.

Excellent Tolstoy. Poor narration.

This is an excellent collection of Tolstoy's stories. The narration leaves much to be desired.

Distracting narrator

What did you like best about this story?

The insights into characters' thoughts and feelings behind the events.

Would you be willing to try another one of Bill DeWees’s performances?

No. He read mechanically, like a kid in a highschool drama performance, but with no teacher to correct his pronunciation. Laughably bad French and embarrassing English.

Embracing death

The story of the decent from vitality to denial to acceptance to embracing the finality of death. A short read but very moving look at one man's fight against the mortal coil. Another great book by Tolstoy.

Great end of life read. Death comes to us all.

Started out a little difficult to follow/slow, but picked up pace nicely. Narrator was ok. It's a great read for end of life as well as terminal illness. I came to this book after reading Being Mortal. I work in hospice and this is an interesting narrative on what end of life is like for my patients.
