FELICIA'S JOURNEY

Irish actor Dermot Crowley goes far beyond mere narrating; he creates veritable theatre from this award-winning text. Under Crowley's perfect control, the two characters collide--one frightened, vulnerable and Irish; the other sybaritic, English and very sick. Does the Irish writer have a political message? Probably, but it's dwarfed by the grace-filled humanity of the novel's end. P.E.F. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 97]
