![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As the book, and ultimately the trilogy unfold there are two story lines (1)finding and stopping Carlos and (2)David Webb, aka Jason Bourne, finding his way back to his real identity. When he got shot and left for dead at the start of the book and lost his memory the pieces of that false persona that came back were the result of his being immersed in the role for so long trying to complete his mission. Note that he wasn't brainwashed or part of a larger group of mummified hit men. In the book, a CIA agent took a false identity - Jason Bourne - who subsequently took credit for Carlos' murders in an attempt to flush Carlos out and end his career. The movie turned Ludlum's noble character into the freak result of the terribly twisted US government - great story in this day and age where its good sport in Hollywood to paint the American govt. Doug (reviewer on July 7) said he needed to watch the movie to see what the book was about because the abridgement was so bad. I can't rate this abridged version since I almost never listen to them. If you haven't read the book DON'T SEE THE MOVIE ![]()
