I am thrilled to find this new audible review, written by Aaron Paul Lazar. Aaron is a mystery writer who created the Gus LeGarde mystery series. Many of his books have audiobook editions. Here is what he says about the narration of Twisted:
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
This is not a book for James Patterson fans. It's for those who love poetry, love to think, love the power of words. To those types of readers, I would most definitely recommend TWISTED.
What did you like best about this story?
I loved the imagery of Ms. Poznansky's writing. She is a dreamer and an artist, and the wild flights that her mind takes are fascinating.
Which scene was your favorite?
My favorite scene/story within this collection of four stories was the one told from a clay figure's point of view., FROM DUST. I loved how well Ms. Poznansky gets into the minds of even an "inanimate" object, bringing the statue to life with power and possibilities. Amazing.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Four women - their loves, lives, and anguish.
Any additional comments?
Heather Jane Hogan (the narrator) is truly outstanding. I found the first story, however, to be spoken to ponderously, too slowly. I had to speed up my playback to 1.25, which felt about "right." I never had to do that before. All of the other stories felt perfectly timed. I think perhaps it was done purposefully because of the storyline, so it's understandable. Another note: it was quite shocking to realize we were hearing the innermost thoughts of a dead woman! ;o)
