Barbara Rosenblat is one of AudioFile’s original Golden Voice narrators, and she is a wonderful chameleon who makes listeners believe in every character she voices. To listeners’ great delight, many of those characters are outrageous! She delights in Sue Townsend’s hilarious send-up of the royal family, THE QUEEN & I, and in Helen Fielding’s Bridget Jones, or the iconic Amelia Peabody from Elizabeth Peters’s long-running mystery series. She has also narrated serious literary work, including SUITE FRANCAISE by Irene Nemirovsky, and is a master of accents. She has more than 60 AudioFile Earphones Awards to her name.

On today’s episode, host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Robin Whitten discuss Barbara’s narration of a light romp that makes for great listening right now, Judith Deborah’s SOUP TO NUTS. Barbara creates wonderful vocal portraits of all of the vibrant characters in a touching story about food, friendship, and love. Comfort food and comfort listening for every season. Published by Judith Deborah.
