Show Notes
Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss how Abraham Verghese is both a gifted writer and a dynamic narrator. Verghese’s newest novel is a tour de force that benefits from the author’s fine ear. This multi-generational fiction set in the watery environs of India’s southern coast is a long and completely immersive listen. Once you hear Verghese’s nuanced, emotionally charged and satisfying reading, you’ll be convinced that no one else could have better captured the dialects, tones, and cadences of his many characters.
