THE LAST DREAM

Earphones Award Winner

by | Read by Colman Domingo, Rachel Weisz, Juan Diego Botto, Norbert Leo Butz, Taylour Paige, Michael Cera, Edoardo Ballerini

Contemporary Culture • 6 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2024

A supremely talented cast narrates 12 short works that could only have originated from master storyteller/director Pedro Almodóvar. This first collection ranges from personal essays--there's one about the death of his mother--to a fascinating retelling of "Sleeping Beauty" that revolves around the Spanish Queen Juana la Loca. Fans of Almodóvar's work will recognize the story "The Visit" from his film BAD EDUCATION. Collectively, the narrators rise to the challenge of conveying the emotions and the unique aspects of these curious tales. The narrators, professional actors, aptly convey Almodóvar's passion for storytelling with their vocal talents. The author's introduction offers more insight. Fans of Almodóvar's work should not miss this remarkable collection. A.M. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2024]
