BALDWIN A Love Story

Earphones Award Winner

by | Read by Ron Butler

Biography & Memoir • 24.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

For more than 24 stunning hours, narrator Ron Butler immerses listeners in the world of writer James Baldwin. This detailed biography structures Baldwin's life around his greatest loves, the people who filled so many of his thoughts. Baldwin travels the globe and makes a name for himself as one of the greatest writers of the 20th century, but he's always drawn back to the people he adored. When the biography quotes Baldwin, Butler evokes him by using Baldwin's intonation and sense of rhythm. Butler's narration is a master class in maintaining the listener's attention over the course of a lengthy audiobook. He makes every change in tone, volume, and pace with careful purpose, creating a seamless listening experience. K.D.W.
