THE ART OF INVENTING HOPE Intimate Conversations with Elie Wiesel

James Foster's narration of this audiobook is a good match of text and voice.The author, whose parents endured the Holocaust, recounts his discovery of their survival stories, which led to a friendship and partnership with the late author Elie Wiesel. Reich's father, Robert, and Wiesel were both liberated from Buchenwald on April 11, 1945. This work provides many insights on the Holocaust and the repercussions of that evil, which Wiesel articulated throughout his life and work. Foster narrates with restrained passion that evokes the tone of the author. His pacing is a bit quick at times but always easy to understand. His enunciation is clear, and his overall performance makes a deep impression on the listener. M.T.F. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2019]
