This is one of the best audio books I have ever had the priviledge of listening too!

Alexandria789 is absolutely right! First, this is a great example of the special value of audiobooks: as the suspense was building, I would have been tempted to cheat and flip ahead. With an audiobook, this is almost impossible, so we’re bound to enjoy the book at the pace the author designed. Second, Campbell Scott brings different voices to life in a way that very few performers can. Like other skilled professionals, he makes his job look easy - until you see how far short of his standard they fall. Besides this, Atwood is terrific, as usual. I especially liked the ambiguous ending - I’m still wondering what will happen next.
