[Editors' Note: The following is a combined review of Volume 1 and Volume 2.]--What a treasure it is to have this collection of some of modern literature's best authors reading some of their most renowned works for fans and future generations. Listeners will hear James Baldwin's anger and underlying bitterness in his tone as well as William Styron's particular enunciation and subtle vocal variations. This production also features two cuts with James Jones, describing sublime details as men prepare for battle. Philip Roth narrates with obvious emotion as he recounts his characters' plights. Bernard Malamud's slight accent and love for his characters are both entertaining and personal. John Updike's soft but firm delivery and Nelson Algren's nasal tone and clipped narration make for great storytelling as well as providing insight into the creative process.
