Behind the Scenes

0:00
Three Day Road
Three Day Road By: Joseph Boyden
“A First World War book with a difference, chronicling the role of the Indigenous hunters who became sure-shot snipers, and the many wounds inflicted by and upon them.”
And Then There Were None
And Then There Were None By: Agatha Christie
“When my mother was over 90 and blind, her family relead to her — as she read to us when we were small. We discovered that Agatha Christie was very well-suited to being read aloud: succinct sentences, finger-biting plot. Ten corpses on an island, with no way on or off. ”
Treasure Island
Treasure Island By: Robert Louis Stevenson, Marty Ross - adaptation
“Stevenson’s excellent prose and story-telling skill are perfectly suited to oral presentation. There’s a reason why this pirate-adventure book is a classic. ("Pieces of eight!") ”
