Critics Review
-
“Golden Voice narrator Edoardo Ballerini captures the intelligent, genteel, and, finally, compassionate voice of the narrator of this classic story…The listener is then led into Herman Mellville’s fascinating examination of loneliness, abandonment, and depression in nineteenth-century society. With assurance and a fine ear for detail Ballerini delivers this sensitive, unsparing 1853 classic.”
