Editor's Review ★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Carlotta Brentan delivers a nuanced performance that perfectly complements Téa Obreht's intricate storytelling in 'The Morningside.' Her voice adeptly transitions between the innocence of the young narrator and the complexity of adult perspectives. The narrative unfolds with a thoughtful pacing, allowing each character’s story to unfold naturally. However, some scenes feel slightly rushed, detracting from their emotional weight. Despite this, the audiobook remains a deeply moving exploration of family and identity in times of strife.
