EASY STREET (THE HARD WAY) A Memoir

by | Read by Ron Perlman

Biography & Memoir • 11 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2014

You don’t need to be familiar with Ron Perlman's TV or movie career to appreciate this entertaining audiobook. Perlman’s down-to-earth memoir takes you backstage—way backstage—into the mind of a struggling actor sorting out a life that intersects with some of the great talents of the last 30 years. What really sets this audiobook apart is the engaging honesty of the narration. Perlman has an excellent reading voice, has great comic timing (check out his chapter about the making of THE ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU), does accents flawlessly, and is a superb mimic (listen to his Sammy Davis, Jr., and Marlon Brando). Plea to Ron: Considering all the voice-over work you do and considering the occasional lean times described in your memoir, couldn’t you fit in a few more audiobooks? PS: Language alert, Perlman makes regular (and effective) use of swear words. R.W.S. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2014]
