Are We There Yet?: Selected Shorts

Editat de Symphony Space
en Limba Engleză CD-Audio – 31 mar 2008
3 CDs. Recorded live at Peter Norton Symphony Space in New York City and at venues across the United States, these audio anthologies feature short stories from the Selected Shorts program. Over 300,000 listeners tune in to this offering weekly to hear spellbinding tales read aloud by an assortment of terrific actors. A lot can happen on the way from one place to another, especially when an overnight flight makes for an unexpected romantic encounter between strangers seated together; South-of-France shenanigans ensue in an out-of-control automobile; and a bored, Midwestern housewife tries to escape to Kansas City. This anthology of tales about people in transit features Stuart Dybek's "Pet Milk" read by Keith Szarabajka, Martha Gellhorn's "Miami, New York" read by Joanna Gleason, Edward P Jones' "An Orange Line Train to Ballston" read by Sonia Manzano, Annie Proulx's "The Trickle-Down Effect" read by James Naughton, Dorothy Thomas' "The Getaway" read by Mia Dillon, James Thurber's "A Ride with Olympy" read by David Rakoff, and Eudora Welty's "No Place for You, My Love" read by Andrea Marcovicci. Approximate running time: 180 minutes.

Reviewed in The Observer's 'Audio Round-Up', March 8, 2009. Best AudioBooks of 2007, AudioFile "Many of us have fond memories of listening to stories read aloud when we were children. Perhaps that accounts for the continuing popularity of the National Public Radio (NPR) hit series Selected Shorts , which features classic and new fiction read by accomplished actors of stage, screen, and television." --Library Journal "Not much else beats the pleasure of a great story read aloud. This is the inspiration behind the marvelous Selected Shorts: A Celebration of the Short Story at New York City's Symphony Space." -- O, The Oprah Magazine "One of our most precious literary resources--the simple and elegant short story--is alive and well in the sure hands of the producers of the Selected Shorts series." -- AudioFile Magazine
