Some books are better when you can hear them

“Since the podcast began, BJ Harrison has been a good storyteller and narrator — and I think in the past couple of years he has risen to another level. He is truly at the top of the narration game (if there is such a thing). Voice, pacing, emotion — he’s got it down. Some books that I have had to plod through as a reader are completely enjoyable when he reads them for me. Gatsby is a good example — I couldn’t get to the end of that book without skipping over chunks of text, so I missed some plot points. Hearing it was a completely different story. Likewise “The Great God Pan.” I’ve never made my way to the end of that story as a reader — it is heavy lifting for someone who naturally skims and reads things fast. But hearing him tell it, it is a great story. This is an older one, but if you get a chance to hear him read “The Happy Prince” by Oscar Wilde (It’s in the archives somewhere), you are in for a treat.”

It's a fun way to get used to the tempo, writing style, and narrative nature of older literature, something that puts young people off of the classics. In addition to that, listening to BJ can make you a better...”Read full review »
