STRINGS ATTACHED One Tough Teacher and the Gift of Great Expectations

by | Read by Kathleen McInerney, Eliza Foss

Biography & Memoir • 10.25 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2013

If you're a teacher, you'd want your students to write about you like this. If you're not, this is the audiobook you wish you'd written about someone who had a profound effect on your life. Jerry Kupchynsky was a public school music teacher who poured his life into teaching, with remarkable and transformative results. The two authors were his students--and one of the two is his daughter. Narrators Kathleen McInerney and Eliza Foss alternate the narration. McInerney's voice is gentle and expressive, and she does a fine job with characters and intonation. Foss has a rather stern, pointed voice that grabs our attention and leads us through the text. Her voice is not as polished, but its authenticity lends her reading credibility and realism. R.I.G. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2014]
