To Build a Fire

The Best of Jack London, Volume 1

By: Jack London

Narrated by: Jim Gallant

Experience first-hand the dramatic ebb and flow of emotion as classic literature is transformed into the world of your imagination like never before. In To Build a Fire, the listener journeys alongside a hungry man and his loyal dog through the vast, bleak tundra of Alaska's Yukon Trail...a landscape so cold, time itself appears to have frozen in place.

Grand musical themes with flowing melodies and dynamic rhythms support the story. Intense, stunning atmospheres of dark, sonic textures abound. Drums and percussion fill the background as rich, symphonic movements rise and fall, teleporting the listener to a foreign yet strangely familiar land. A compelling and captivating listening experience, both dramatic and introspective...and ultimately inescapable!

Outstanding!

A great story made even better by a wonderful narration by Jim Gallant. Excellent all around.

Great narration of To Build A Fire

Gallant captures the moods of solitude, fading hope and looming doom of night falling in Yukon forests.
