Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Karen Chilton’s narration is nothing short of brilliant in ‘A Second Sight’. Her deep, resonant voice anchors the listener firmly within the narrative, allowing every complex emotion and historical moment to unfold with clarity. The pacing is deliberate, giving ample time for Jackson’s rich insights on race, art, and journalism to sink in. However, some sections feel slightly redundant, perhaps due to repeated references to key events that could have been streamlined. Despite this minor critique, the audiobook remains a compelling exploration of the American experience through the lens of Black editors.
