HILLARY'S CHOICE

At a time when her independent political career is coming into sharp focus, this biography of Hillary Rodham Clinton is both timely and poignant. Gail Sheehy gathers insightful character studies and commentary from interviews with many expected and unexpected people in the first lady's life. She pulls together a unique work that informs listeners while letting them in on the personal roots of this dynamic woman. Sheehy's bold speaking voice is a good match for the subject of her text. Although there are moments when she even sounds like the first lady, Sheehy also maintains a journalist's distance, lending an even more authentic feel to the audiobook.
