LOVE SONG

As 22-year-old Lillie Bird reflects upon her unborn child, she writes the story of her exile to a small religious community and the events that led to her pregnancy. After a startling opening scene, listeners will want to know how the baby's father died and why Lillie is charged with his murder. Caroline Lee's reading is both realistic in its Australian accent and smooth enough to keep ears tuned in. J.M.S. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/NOV 05]
