Sensational by Kim Todd, Read by Maggi-Meg Reed
A Terrific Pairing of Impressive Nonfiction and a Splendid Performer
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 dive into Kim Todd’s accomplished history of the female “stunt reporters” of the late 19th century, Sensational. The audiobook is a sensational adventure for the ears, and narrator Maggi-Meg Reed is the ideal choice to deliver the narratives of women journalists who donned disguises and alternate identities to go undercover. Reed’s intelligent and fully engaged tone makes clear the significance of their investigations as vehicles for societal change, and as positive representation of women of this era. A terrific pairing of an impressive work of nonfiction and a splendid performer. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile’s website.
