Description: Actor, writer, and film director Lake Bell explores her obsession with voices in this direct-to-audio book. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Michele Cobb discuss Bell’s unusual and fascinating audiobook that dives into recognizable voices, along with the interpretation and bias of voices and what they reveal about identity.

Without being scholarly, this listening experience offers many revelations and suggests further questions.Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile’s website...
