A FORTUNATE NAME

by Margaret Mahy | Read by Richard Mitchley

Children • 1.75 hrs. • Unabridged • © 1993

Caught in the conflicts of social snobbery and parental separation, 10-year-old Lorelei makes her way along tortuous paths with great spirit. Mitchley's broad, British tones more than adequately capture the accents and voicings of the characters. S.B.S. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPT 96]
