Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Dana Yakoby's narration in 'Raking Light From Ashes' is nothing short of extraordinary, imbuing every sentence with raw emotion. Her ability to convey Relli’s inner turmoil alongside the broader historical backdrop is exceptional. The pacing is deliberate yet engaging, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves without feeling overwhelmed. However, there are occasional pauses that can be distracting, as if Yakoby momentarily loses her place or breathes too deeply. Despite this minor issue, the audiobook remains a powerful and poignant listening experience, one that should not be missed for anyone interested in biographical memoirs or Holocaust narratives.
