THE OLD MAN AND MR. SMITH

God's visit to Earth in the company of Satan presents a unique opportunity for John Sessions's vocal dexterity. His vocal portrayal of these eternal enemies in this amusing and penetrating fable is magnificent. Sessions renders the voice of God as enormous and earthshaking, the voice of Satan as sneering and reptilian. The voice used for other characters is always appropriate. These vocal gymnastics require the very high fidelity recording that is a hallmark of Chivers Audio Books. J.D.N. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB 95]
