BEST LOVED STORIES, Vol. 2

Five tellers, the "best of the best" from the last twenty years of the National Storytelling Festival, range in style from flamboyant Cajun dialect to the high-pitched and hilarious rendition of "Cinderella" told by an African-American woman from Baltimore. Perhaps the most moving is the understated delivery of Jim May as he quietly talks about grwoing up with his father on their farm. Although technically less polished than most professinal audiobooks, the informal exuberance of live taping gives this recording special appeal. This audio program is also avaialble in book form.
