About This Audiobook

Tracy Lorraine's writing is a masterclass in economy and emotional impact. His Manhattan is a short, snappy collection of stories that pack a punch, each one meticulously crafted to deliver a satisfying gut-punch. Summer, the protagonist, is a complex and deeply human creation, her voice crackling with vulnerability as she navigates the cutthroat world of Las Vegas nightlife. Guy Veryzer's narration brings a smooth, urbane quality to the proceedings, his accents perfectly capturing the international flavor of the story.

What sets His Manhattan apart, though, is its unflinching examination of desire and ambition. Lorraine doesn't shy away from the darker corners of human nature, yet her characters remain relatable and even likable. The world of the story may be seedy, but it's full of people – messy, beautiful people. Veryzer's performance brings this world to life, his voice blending seamlessly with the author's to create a rich, immersive experience.

At 2 hours 24 minutes, His Manhattan may be a brief listen, but its impact lingers long after the final credits roll. Fans of character-driven fiction and atmospheric settings will find plenty to appreciate in this quietly confident debut.

Editor's Review ★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

As I listened to His Manhattan, I found myself drawn into the world of Las Vegas nightlife, where Summer's sassy, self-assured exterior hides a complex, deeply human heart. Guy Veryzer's narration is a key part of the experience – his voice brings a smooth, urbane quality to the proceedings, perfectly capturing the international flavor of the story. At times, though, his British accent can feel a touch overdone, lingering just a fraction too long in the memory. One thing that struck me about His Manhattan was its willingness to explore the darker corners of desire and ambition. Summer's journey is a messy, often painful one, yet Lorraine never shies away from the difficult questions. Instead, she asks them with a refreshing candor, her characters remaining relatable and even likable despite their flaws. Still, the pacing can feel a touch uneven at times, with some sections feeling a bit rushed. Overall, though, His Manhattan is a compelling, immersive listen that's well worth the time.
