Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

The narrators in Skinship bring a remarkable range and authenticity to their roles, each voice perfectly matching the emotional weight of the stories they convey. Greta Jung's nuanced performance as an elderly Korean American woman is particularly poignant, while Keong Sim’s portrayal of a young Korean American struggling with identity adds depth to the narrative. The pacing is deliberate, allowing time for the complex emotions to unfold and the intricate family dynamics to emerge fully. However, some stories feel slightly disconnected from one another, occasionally disrupting the flow. Despite this minor critique, Skinship remains a deeply moving and thought-provoking audiobook that anyone interested in literature or cultural identity will find compelling.
