Editor's Review ★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

T. Ryder Smith’s narration is nothing short of exceptional in 'What Is Time to a Pig?,' bringing to life John Straley's intricate narrative with an unwavering empathy and subtle depth. Each pig voice carries its own distinct personality, enhancing the storytelling as much as the human characters do. The pacing is deliberate yet compelling, allowing moments of contemplation to resonate without feeling sluggish. However, some sections might feel overly poetic for those seeking a more straightforward narrative. Despite this minor critique, the audiobook remains a moving and thought-provoking experience that challenges perceptions of time, identity, and societal structures.
