Say You're One of Them
Uwem Akpan, , read by Robin Miles and Dion Graham. . Hachette Audio, $18.98 (0pp) ISBN 978-1-60788-341-8
This brilliant collection of short stories by Nigerian-born Akpan invites listeners into a world of beauty and heartbreak where young people in the throes of adolescence struggle to survive harrowing violence and tragedy. Miles and the remarkable Graham meet the prose with their own intensity and bring flourishes to the realistic, empathetic characters. Graham is a true stand-out: he inhabits each character fully, aces accents, and excels at conveying an understated melancholy. A thrilling work of art.
