A visionary work that combines speculative fiction with deep philosophical inquiry, The Sparrow tells the story of a charismatic Jesuit priest and linguist, Emilio Sandoz, who leads a scientific mission entrusted with a profound task: To make first contact with intelligent extraterrestrial life. The mission begins in faith, hope, and beauty, but a series of small misunderstandings brings it to a catastrophic end.

Kritikerstimmen

“A startling, engrossing, and moral work of fiction.” (The New York Times Book Review)

“Important novels leave deep cracks in our beliefs, our prejudices, and our blinders. The Sparrow is one of them.” (Entertainment Weekly)

“Powerful...The Sparrow tackles a difficult subject with grace and intelligence.” (San Francisco Chronicle)

The book is an interesting take on first encounters on another planet, and the performance is good. If you are fan of slow burning, thoughtful sci-fi, I can recommend it. However, the audio quality is atrocious - so bad I thought my headphones were broken. It is incredibly compresses and muddled. I still finished the book - a testament to the writing's quality, just be aware that it sounds bad.

Philosophical Tale with a Punchline, Bad Audio Quality

the story builds up for hours just to hurry through the last parts and leave you somewhat unsatisfied

Great writing and reading but horrible pacing
