Title: Almost unbearable to listen to
Product review: I'm sure this writer is a very nice person, but she should NOT have been the reader on this book. There are some Southern accents that are musical and lovely, but this one is nasal, twangy, and worst of all, just deadly monotonous. No matter how lyrical the words are, the reading is a flat drone that makes it almost impossible to even understand what she's talking about some of the time. All sense of the magic and beauty of the place she's describing is gone. Compared, say, to Peter Mayle's own reading of his book "A Year in Provence," which is utterly delightful, this audio book is shudderingly bad.
