BONNIE READS PARADISE TOWERS
Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 9:52PM | Stephen Wyatt
The first chance I've had to sit down and listen to Bonnie Langford's reading of Paradise Towers in full. I'd sampled it before so I knew she'd done a good job. But this time I was really struck by the sharpness and wit of her characterisations and her expert pacing of the narrative. And, to be honest, her reading is in some ways closer to my original conception than the televised version. I found myself agreeing with David J.Howe's comments in the notes -
"Wyatt creates and maintains an effective world, one which benefits from the written word rather than the limitations of television presentation."
So warm thanks to Bonnie and the AudioGO production team, headed by David Griffiths who've also done a great job.
