The Little Yellow Dog. Walter Mosley.
(audiobook).
It took me about four months to finish this book on tape. The
narrator has a pleasing voice and, at his best, does all of the
characters' voices well. But the production seemed sloppy; many
hesitations and misplaced accents and a few head-slapping
mis-pronunciations slipped through. (Foilage for foliage, La see-en-gah
for La Cienega, twice each, among others). That notwithstanding, the words and
atmosphere were excellent, although I still can't remember which
of Holland and Roman was Idabell Turner's husband and which was
the brother-in-law.
