CAMILLA'S ROSES

A successful African-American businesswoman painfully reviews her traumatic past after a cancer diagnosis. Patricia Floyd brings McFadden’s beautiful imagery and compelling characters together with a narration that is riveting drama. Floyd does not just read, she becomes a sister who hates her mentally challenged sibling, a mother whose addictions destroy her family, and a child blindsided by abandonment. Floyd can credibly vocalize male, female, young, old, and in between, all the while keeping the listener tied to this emotionally difficult work. P.R.
