Trevor is a great reader and I loved listening to him speak in his native tongue. He can be very funny and very emotional and it comes through in his narration on the audio. I'm not sure it would in the book, but who knows. You could always do a read/listen combo.Les in Oregonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15053880852764886416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-70583603000636563112018-01-08T14:08:47.037-08:002018-01-08T14:08:47.037-08:00I really want to read this one but I keep hearing ...I really want to read this one but I keep hearing the audio is great so while I typically don't do audiobooks I think I may need to make an exception!Ilianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026669671843769219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-248207999071295512018-01-08T13:30:09.764-08:002018-01-08T13:30:09.764-08:00Angela, I wanted to be utterly wowed by this book ...Angela, I wanted to be utterly wowed by this book and while it wasn't disappointing, it just isn't one I'd rush out to buy to have on my shelf. Not like Bragg's All Over But the Shoutin' or Anderson Cooper's Dispatches from the Edge.

It's rare that an author (and especially an actor/celebrity) does such a good job with their own book, but he did! Yes, hearing him speak Xhosa was special.Les in Oregonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15053880852764886416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-74427383887740237182018-01-08T07:17:27.697-08:002018-01-08T07:17:27.697-08:00I liked this book and Bragg's book too.
