Every Monday through Friday, AudioFile’s editors recommend the best in audiobook listening. We keep our daily episodes short and sweet, with audiobook clips to give you a sample of our featured listens.
Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Robin Whitten are welcoming Juliet Stevenson as a 2022 Golden Voice narrator. Listeners appreciate Juliet’s crystalline voice and expressive accents. Her performances are elegant, and her characters are memorable. She has been narrating audiobooks for nearly 40 years, and has said she loves how audiobooks extend her range as an actor. She has extensive work as an actor on stage and screen, as well. Look for Jo’s interview with Juliet in August to hear more about her audiobook narrations.
