Book Reviews of Voices of Our Time: Five Decades of Studs Terkel Interviews
Book Review: Studs Terkel Voices
Summary: 5 Stars
For brief periods of time I shared moments with people I've read, saw on TV, film, listened to - some I've admired, some I wasn't too sure of, but these little glimpses into the past, into moments of time are magical - the sounds of everyday life, the coffee being drunk, the cigarette inhaled, an intake of breath, the traffic outside a Manhattan hotel window in a decade long since passed, an interviewee singing a song, telling a story, sharing a joke, moments of sadness, laughter - none of it polished, rehearsed, plastic and perfect, all of it 'real' - it's a wonderful CD and Studs Terkel a Master Interviewer.

This nationally syndicated, Peabody Award-winning program was an ideal showcase for his curmudgeonly wit, his maverick opinions, and his genius as an interviewer.The 48 interviews in this collection, span Terkel's five decades on radio and encompass a wide range of entertainers, scientists, writers and thinkers, including Dorothy Parker, Pete Seeger, Bob Woodward, Simone de Beauvoir, and many more.
