UNTAMED SHORE

Narrator Maria Liatis captures the youthful innocence and frustrations of a teenage girl trapped in a dying Baja town in this new audiobook. Viridiana is named after a movie star, but she finds herself condemned to spend time acting as a translator and tourist guide. When a writer, his wife, and her brother come to town, Viridiana ends up as both their translator and a pawn in a murder scheme. Liatis perfectly embraces Viridiana's youthful tone and conflicted emotions in a powerful performance. She clearly gives her all to the role, inserting listeners into Viridiana's unexpected nightmare. V.B. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2020]
