Book Reviews of Best of NPR's Lost and Found Sound Vol. 1
Book Review: Dazzling
Summary: 5 Stars
From beginning to finishI was struck by its simplicity and familiarity.
Heartbreaking voice of a little girl who will not live to reach adulthood.
The everyday neighborhood sounds brought back my own childhood.
The song by the 'coal girl' incredibly beautiful.
The role cigar workers played in employment improvements by having been read to while working by the literate and knowledgeable among them. Well done. A masterpiece.
I love this cassette and would not part with it for any price.
I found it in a local 'Dollar' Store.
I've gone online only looking for Volume two?
