MISS WYOMING

Much like the Hollywood culture Coupland writes about, this latest work features leaps, flashbacks and complicated dance steps. This novel, which follows the bumpy lives of Susan and John, two movie-industry refugees, is the perfect material for the narration team of Sharon Williams and Aaron Frye. The readers capture the lonesome, sarcastic and hopeful tones of their respective characters, deftly trading off as Susan and John trace the story of their relationship. Williams and Frye take an intricately woven plot and give it life with their performances. Characters have distinct personalities, and Coupland's story is delivered with style and humor, while the theme of love remains intact. L.B.F. © AudioFile 2000, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/NOV 00]
