JUNIE by Erin Crosby Eckstine, read by Angel Pean
Behind the Mic with AudioFile Magazine
Narrator Angel Pean's stand-out performance is essential here. AudioFile’s Steve Cummings and host Jo Reed discuss how her storytelling skill fully embodies these characters and the detailed and occasionally magical world they inhabit. Junie, an enslaved girl in 1800s Alabama, lives with the loss of her sister, Minnie, whose death is a weight on her conscience. An encounter with Minnie's ghost changes Junie's life, opening a new path that could include escaping her captors. The rich listening experience envelopes listeners in the powerful story.
