THE CONSTANT RABBIT

Earphones Award Winner

by | Read by Andrew Wincott

Fiction • 12.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2020

Narrator Andrew Wincott delivers on all accounts as he performs this satire of contemporary America and the UK. Set in an alternative world some 50 years after a variety of mammals (and a couple of insects) underwent a "spontaneous anthropomorphizing event," this audiobook is a clever and astute look at racial prejudice, fear of immigrants, and the effects of a bullying national leadership. Wincott's spot-on characterizations are full of personality. Two contrasting examples are Peter Knox, a human who has risen from unquestioning civil servant to unlikely civil rights advocate, and the fear-mongering Senior Group Leader, Mr. Ffoxe, a sentient orange fox who looks for legal loopholes and demands loyalty. An absurd premise and an abundance of humor provide relief from darker truths. C.B.L. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2020]
