What made the experience of listening to Americanah the most enjoyable?

1. The narration - so beautifully read in so many voices - and everyone of them sounding so authentic
2. the story itself was a 'cannot put down'
3. the way it made me feel uncomfortable, angry embarrassed and challenged - yet told without seeming accusatory.

What did you like best about this story?

the challenge of listening to and reacting to how it is for other races living in a country where bigotry and prejudice are so deep seated - both subversive and overt

Ifemelu

What would have made Patrick Hedstrom and Erica Falck (7) – The Lost Boy better?

I wonder if the translation to English lost much of the impact. I found the constant use of common similes and metaphors childish and infuriating.

The story itself was gripping - but I struggled to continue listening as the writing constantly annoyed me.

I also did not like the narration - the tone varied between condescending and pathetic - not enough variation for other compex characters again - most annoying

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The relationship between the "now" and "then" - which had me trying to work out the connection.

Re reference to parts already told. Did the writer think I couldn't remember?

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Robin Bowerman?

Sean Barratt

What character would you cut from Patrick Hedstrom and Erica Falck (7) – The Lost Boy?

The Super - time he went!
