MY FINE FELLOW

This charming retelling of MY FAIR LADY is a must-listen! The story opens on 1830s England, where listeners are introduced to Elijah Little, Helena Higgins, and Penelope Pickering. Helena and Penelope are chefs-in-training, and Elijah is a food seller who becomes their project as they attempt to turn him into the next gentlemen chef. With echoes of the original story, this update also includes a focus on the cultural and religious backgrounds of the characters, which helps to deepen listeners' connections to their experiences. Curtis is engaging and utterly believable as she voices the range of characters and transports listeners with her descriptions of food and personal growth. Listeners will be drawn into the captivating friendships, relationships, and culinary achievements presented. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2023]
