Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Dion Graham delivers a powerhouse performance in 'Another Country,' his deep, resonant voice perfectly anchoring James Baldwin's searing narrative. The story is a raw, unflinching look at race and desire in 1960s Harlem, with Baldwin's prose packing an emotional punch that only gets stronger through Graham’s nuanced delivery. However, some listeners might find the pacing a bit slow, which can be challenging given its introspective nature. Despite this, 'Another Country' remains a powerful testament to Baldwin’s writing and Graham’s acting abilities.
