Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Daniel Philpott’s narration is nothing short of exceptional; his voice carries the weight of history while maintaining an air of gentle nostalgia. The story of Manfred, the cherished Dachshund, and the German prisoner who crafted him resonates deeply, touching on themes of empathy and forgiveness. However, some might find the pacing a bit slow for fast-paced listeners. Despite this minor critique, ‘Little Manfred’ remains a poignant exploration of human connection in dire circumstances.
