Gert Westphal
About this listen
Wenn Deutschlands größter Dichter und Deutschlands bekannteste Stimme zusammenkommen, so ist das ein großer Glücksmoment für den Hörer. Denn wer könnte Goethes Figuren treffender charakterisieren, seine Sprachkunst funkelnder zur Geltung bringen, seine Gedanken souveräner nachvollziehen als der große Goethe-Interpret Gert Westphal? Es scheint, Goethe hat beim Schreiben dieser Worte schon den König der Vorleser vor sich gesehen: "Wenn ihr's nicht fühlt, ihr werdet's nicht erjagen, / Wenn es nicht aus der Seele dringt / Und mit urkräftigem Behagen / Die Herzen aller Hörer zwingt."
Enthält:
- Goethes Autobiografie "Dichtung und Wahrheit",
- den Reisebericht "Italienische Reise",
- den Roman "Die Leiden des jungen Werthers",
- das Versepos "Reineke Fuchs",
- die Gedichtsammlung "West-Östlicher Diwan",
- weitere Gedichte und Balladen sowie Goethes Gespräche mit Eckermann.

Story
Der Zauberer und der König der Vorleser. Gert Westphal ist eine Legende: Die wohlklingende, modulationsreiche Stimme, sein untrügliches Gespür für Rhythmus, die souveränen Tempo- und Rollenwechsel, die kräftigen Dialektfarben - nicht umsonst hat die ZEIT ihn zum "König der Vorleser" gekürt. Besonders berühmt wurden seine Rezitationen Thomas Manns, dessen "oberster Mund" (Katja Mann) er war. In dieser Edition kann man wieder und wieder dessen großen Erzählungen und Romanen lauschen.

Story
Als der 62-jährige Goethe auf Wunsch von Freunden und Bewunderern 1811 das erste Buch seiner Lebenserinnerungen "Aus meinem Leben. Dichtung und Wahrheit" veröffentlichte, legte er damit den Grundstein zu einer monumentalen Autobiografie, die in Hinblick auf ihren literarischen Wert und Einfluss bis heute ihresgleichen sucht. In Teil I und II erzählt der Dichterfürst über Kindheit und Studium - eine Zeit, die geprägt ist von inspirierenden Begegnungen, schwerer Krankheit, aber auch tiefen Gefühlen.

Story
Oskar Matzerath ist anders. Mit drei Jahren beschließt er, nicht weiter zu wachsen. Der groteske Außenseiter betrachtet die Welt mit schonungslos-sarkastischem Blick "von unten". Sein ständiger Begleiter ist eine Blechtrommel. Mit ihr ertrommelt er sich Distanz, fordert, schreckt auf. Wird sie ihm genommen, setzt er sich mit einem Schrei zur Wehr, der Glas zerspringen lässt. So absonderlich der zornige Zwerg ist, so frei ist er. Oskar ist ein unerbittlich scharfsinniger Beobachter des Danziger Kleinbürgertums im "Dritten Reich".

Story
Gerade aus der Haft entlassen, möchte sich Franz Biberkopf eine neue Existenz aufbauen. Doch den Lockungen der Großstadt kann er nicht widerstehen und wird schon bald wieder in kriminelle Machenschaften verwickelt, die ihn fast an den Galgen bringen. Das bewegende Schicksal des Arbeiters Franz Biberkopf, der sich in einer Welt des Verbrechens verirrt, steht exemplarisch für den Kampf des kleinen Mannes in einer unsicher gewordenen Welt. Döblin schuf damit einen Jahrhundertroman, der häufig mit "Ulysses" verglichen wird. Hannes Messemer liest diese atemlose, polyphone Symphonie der Großstadt bravourös ein.

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
Der Zauberer und der König der Vorleser. Gert Westphal ist eine Legende: Die wohlklingende, modulationsreiche Stimme, sein untrügliches Gespür für Rhythmus, die souveränen Tempo- und Rollenwechsel, die kräftigen Dialektfarben - nicht umsonst hat die ZEIT ihn zum "König der Vorleser" gekürt. Besonders berühmt wurden seine Rezitationen Thomas Manns, dessen "oberster Mund" (Katja Mann) er war. In dieser Edition kann man wieder und wieder dessen großen Erzählungen und Romanen lauschen.

Story
In seinem ersten Roman Buddenbrooks erzählt Thomas Mann nur wenig verschlüsselt die Geschichte seiner Familie und ihrer Stellung in der Vaterstadt Lübeck, soweit er sie nachvollziehen, in Einzelheiten überblicken konnte, ja sogar noch miterlebt hat. Verwandte, Honoratioren und markante Persönlichkeiten seiner Jugend werden integriert. Es ist die Geschichte des langsamen Niedergangs einer reichen Kaufmannsfamilie über vier Generationen hinweg. Auch mehr als hundert Jahren nach seinem ersten Erscheinen hat der Roman nichts an Charme und Aktualität eingebüßt.

Story
Ein kurzer Besuch in einem Davoser Sanatorium wird für den jungen Ingenieur Hans Castorp zu einem siebenjährigen Aufenthalt, der Kurort wird zur Bühne für die europäische Befindlichkeit vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg. Fern von der erdrückenden Realität drehen sich die Gespräche unter den Patienten um Politik, Philosophie, Liebe, Krankheit und Tod. Im Juli 1913 begonnen, während des Krieges durch essayistische Arbeiten unterbrochen, konnte der Roman 1924 abgeschlossen und veröffentlicht werden.

Story
Ausgangspunkt für Thomas Manns Goethe-Roman ist der historisch belegte Besuch Charlotte Kestners, Goethes unglücklicher Jugendliebe und Vorbild für die Figur der Lotte im 'Werther', 1816 in Weimar. In einer Mischung aus Fiktion und Wirklichkeit arrangiert Thomas Mann geschickt das Wiedertreffen zwischen Lotte und dem inzwischen berühmten Goethe. Es kommt zu Gesprächen, von denen sich Lotte Aufschluss über die frühere Leidenschaft erhofft. Gert Westphal gibt diesem Mann`schen Roman seine klangvolle Stimme.

Table of Contents?
Of course Audible doesn't help you know when the works start or end, so here is my attempt at a Table of Contents.
Kapitel 1 Ballades
Kapitel 22 West-Ostlicher Divan.
Kapitel 44 Reineke Fuchs.
Kapitel 65. Leiden Jungen Werthers.
Kapitel 151 Aus meinem Leben I
Kapitel 289 Aus meinem Leben II
Kapitel 441 Aus meinem Leben III
Kapitel 581 Aus meinem Leben IV
Kapitel 656 Italienische Reise
Kapitel 964 Gesprache mit Goethe.

Great Content, good performance, terrible Product
Herr Westphal, I am sure, is pretty upset about this product as well. His performance it pretty good (at least good enough), but the product itself is so flawed that it is useless. Audible, in their ever so "we're just doing the bare minimum" has omitted to give the gigantic project chapter headings or any kind of other navigational help. I have downloaded the first four parts and they are randomly cut into 200 chapters that aren't properly described. Not even where or when a book like the Werther starts. So you have one and one choice only: let Goethe (Westphal) dabble along for 63 hours, without the chance to pick and choose what to listen to. Very upsetting, I wish I could return this mess.
