Title: The Last Dream Author: Pedro Almodóvar Narrator: Juan Diego Botto, Michael Cera, Taylour Paige, Frank Wynne, Colman Domingo, Norbert Leo Butz, Edoardo Ballerini, Rachel Weisz Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 57 minutes Release date: September 26, 2024 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. A mischievous and genre-spanning story collection from legendary film director Pedro Almodóvar The Last Dream brings together for the first time twelve unpublished stories from Almodóvar’s personal archive, written between the late sixties and the present day. Delivering a tantalising glimpse into Almodóvar’s world, this wildly inventive collection reflects his most intimate obsessions, as well as his daring evolution as an artist. Ranging from ‘The Last Dream’ - a beautiful chronicle of the death of Almodóvar’s mother - to a love story between Jesus and Barabbas;, a cult film director out in search of painkillers on a bank holiday weekend, the original story behind the film Bad Education, and a gothic tale of a repentant vampire, these stories delight and surprise. The Last Dream is a celebration of the relationship between life and art, fiction and reality from an artist unafraid to write about our most intimate moments. It explores desire, mortality and the pain and glory of artistic creation, laced with playful humour and a deep love of literature and culture.
