EVERYTHING MATTERS!

Since he was in the womb, Junior Thibodeau has known the exact time and method that the world will end. Growing up with that terrible certainty, will anything he does matter? He, and the listener, learn that everything matters. Anyone who enjoyed THE TIME TRAVELER'S WIFE will enjoy this literate, almost poetic, science-fiction and romance story in which the end of the world is the least important idea. Featuring a half-dozen characters, played by various actors, the story is told by an unidentified omniscient narrator, played by Mark Deakins. His kindly but firm voice carries the tone of the book beautifully, despite its somewhat odd construction. Abby Craden, Lincoln Hoppe, and the other narrators create a powerful audio experience. The emotional performances throughout make EVERYTHING MATTERS unforgettable. M.S. © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2009]
