Title: Best audiobook ever!
Review: First off, I've read the novel as well, and it's easily Lethem's best. I worked for five years for a guy with Tourette's, and Lethem did is homework. The thing you don't get on the printed page is the abruptness, the change of tempo, that a verbal tick, especially an unsuccesful suppression of one, can come out with such lightning speed in the midst of an otherwise normal conversation.Which is where Frank Muller comes in. I listen to audiobooks at work, usually 40 or 50 hours a week. I rarely revisit one, but in the case of Motherless Brooklyn, I can't stop going back to the library and getting it for another listen.There are some other good audiobooks out there, to be sure, and some other gifted narrators, but this combination of book and narrator is the ultimate.
