All My Love, Detrick

De: Roberta Kagan

Narrado por: Kevin S. Martin

Set in Nazi occupied Europe, All My Love, Detrick follows the lives of two families, one Jewish and one German. They are bound together forever by a forbidden love.

Excerpt: The desolation all around her touched a nerve, and she hurried to turn the corner. A soft voice whispered in her mind, "Hurry, Leah, it's not safe here." Her heart began to race. Sweat formed in her armpits. Now there were no more houses; only open field. Walking faster her heel hit a patch of ice. Stumbling and tripping she fell. Fortunately, she'd fallen to her left landing on a grassy surface. Nausea played havoc with her stomach as it accompanied the thumping of her heart in her eardrums. Something felt wrong.

If you like historical sagas, you'll love All My Love, Detrick.

Where did they find the reader?

It's a pretty good story, historic events well mixed with fiction. But could they not find a reader who is actually literate? I've never heard such fumbling, toneless, unprofessional reading. My advice: Read the book, don't listen to it.

horrible narrator!!!!

Any additional comments?

don't use this narrator for novels.......maybe is ok for a non fiction book

Worst narrator ever!

The story may have been good, but it was hard to tell. With this narrator, the plot sounded sophomoric and and the conversations fake and stilted. With poor sound management, I could hear cars and other traffic noise in the back ground. I will try another book by this author- hopefully someone has engaged a professional reader for future endeavors.

Why this narrator??

Wonderful, if rather short story. I listened to it in 2 days on and off.
But, this narrator... just NO! He reads the book like my little 6 year old granddaughter learning to read her first books!
Please, Audible, give this book a better chance by re-recording it with someone else! I think this audio does a disservice to Ms. Kagan’s book.

Heart-rendingly beautiful & sad

Well written, with engaging characters, this story of war & oppression is both entertaining & thought-provoking, leaving the reader sad, but fulfilled.
