Bahni Turpin's voice is a revelation in 'The God of Lost Words.' Her performance is nuanced and emotive, especially during poignant moments that resonate deeply. The pacing is deliberate yet engaging; Hackwith’s prose flows like a river, drawing you into the narrative effortlessly. Specific critiques aside, this audiobook is a triumph of storytelling.
