Like many well-to-do Upper East Siders over the age of 65, esteemed art appraiser Percival Skinner had planned to spend his retirement living off his savings. But a market correction has left him living below his prior means. One day he’s visited by a dapper fixer in search of a famous work by a Renaissance master. Skinner knows the work well: The original was owned by his ancestor, and was passed down through his family over the generations. If, as an intermediary, he can coordinate a sale, a small fortune awaits. Problem is, he might not be the only one on the make.

Another gem from Amor Towles

Brilliant narration by John Lithgow. Every sentence is packed with Towles’ incisive yet sympathetic observations of human nature.

In the summer of 1959 Stella Raphael joins her psychiatrist husband, Max, at his new posting - a maximum-security hospital for the criminally insane. Stella soon falls under the spell of Edgar Stark, a brilliant sculptor who has been confined to the hospital for murdering his wife in a psychotic rage. But Stella's knowledge of Edgar's crime is no hindrance to the volcanic attraction that ensues -a passion that will consume Stella's sanity and destroy her and the lives of those around her.

Annoying clicks

Enjoyed the reading except from time to time there were annoying clucks like a recorder turning off and on.

Gianni Peroni is at a loose end. He's got nothing urgent to do but he notices that the pathologist has a busy day ahead: during the night two corpses were picked out of the Tiber. At first glance, it seems that the similarities between the two men end there. But then Gianni notices something very strange...

A Fascinating Day in the Life of Gianni Peroni
Revisado: 10-08-12
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
If you are a fan of the Nic Costa series, you must give this a listen. Saul Reichlin's narration is perfect, as usual. Peroni gets a chance to move from his supporting role to being the central character in the story, and the listener has the pleasure of observing Peroni's old school detective work.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Dead Men's Socks?
Seeing how Peroni handles the hot shot Commissario from up north.
What does Saul Reichlin bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Every character has a unique voice, but Reichlin achieves this with great subtlety. I think I would even enjoy hearing Reichlin read the phone book.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, particularly because it is short.
