  • "A wounded Civil War soldier's journey home to his sweetheart."
  • "Wounded and disillusioned by the fighting at Petersburg, a Confederate soldier decides to walk back to his home in the Blue Ridge Mountains and to Ada, the woman he loved three years before.

  • "Na zwaar gewond te zijn geraakt in de Amerikaanse Burgeroorlog deserteert een soldaat en begint aan de lange, gevaarlijke thuisreis naar North Carolina."
  • "Inman is a wounded soldier who walks away from the ravages of the war and back home to his pre-war sweetheart, Ada. Inman's odyssey through the devastated landscape of the soon-to-be-defeated South interweaves with Ada's struggle to survive her father's death and the loss of his income by reviving the family farm in the Cold Mountain community where she is an outsider. Based on a story handed down in Frazier's own family, Cold Mountain is a beautifully written and haunting novel of love and loss."
  • "This unabridged audio version of Cold Mountain, read by author Charles Frazier, deserves at least as much acclaim as the bestselling print edition, which won the National Book Award. The tale chronicles a Confederate army deserter's search for home and love in the last days of the Civil War. Much has been made of the story's homage to The Odyssey, the origins of which are found in an oral tradition. One can't help but hear echoes of Homer when listening to Frazier's soft, deliberate voice give life to his lyrical writing and to his understated, yet convincing rendering of the overwhelming events of war. Both Frazier's prose and reading are leisurely, recalling a slow foot pace. His delivery is uniquely suited to Innman's arduous, adventure-filled walk toward home and to the possibility of a reunion with Ada, the woman he loves. The author's reading does equal justice to Ada, who is being transformed by her struggle for survival on her father's farm."@en
