"The episodes explode one after the other like fireworks on a stormy
night. No doubt about it, this book is destined to become a classic." Baltimore Sun "A Confederacy of Dunces has been reviewed almost everywhere, and every reviewer has loved it. For once, everyone is right."Rolling Stone "Barrett Whitener strikes just the right note."AudioFile "A green hunting cap squeezed the top of the fleshy balloon of a head. The green earflaps, full of large ears and uncut hair and the fine bristles that grew in the ears themselves, stuck out on either side like turn signals indicating two directions at once." So enters one of the most memorable characters in recent American fiction. The hero of John Kennedy Toole's incomparable, Pulitzer Prize-winning comic classic is one Ignatius J. Reilly, "huge, obese, fractious, fastidious, a latter-day Gargantua, a Don Quixote of the French Quarter. His story bursts with wholly original characters, denizens of New Orleans' lower depths, incredibly true-to-life dialogue, and the zaniest series of high and low comic adventuresWhat a delight, what a roaring, rollicking, footstomping wonder this book is! I laughed until my sides ached, and then I laughed on."Chicago Sun-Times Barrett Whitener has recorded audiobooks since 1992. His recordings have won several awards, including the Audio Publishers Association's Audie and four Earphones Awards. AudioFile cited him as among "the best voices of the century." He lives in Washington, D.C. Other Audio Books you may be interested in
