Editor reviews

In Henry James' Washington Square, a loving but simple daughter struggles to live up to her brilliant father's expectations. This tragicomedy looks at family and betrayal through this one strained parent-child relationship. John McDonough, in his versatile British voice, performs this classic stylishly. With a bright and formal tone, McDonough tackles the lyrical language with vigor. Using his vocal range, McDonough spiritedly embodies both male and female characters. Moreover, his expert pacing and smart pauses make this audiobook a cinch to follow.
