When award-winning ESPN producer Lisa Fenn returned to her hometown for a story about two wrestlers at one of Cleveland's toughest public high schools, she had no idea that the trip would change her life. Both young men were disadvantaged students with significant physical disabilities. Dartanyon Crockett was legally blind as a result of Leber's disease; Leroy Sutton lost both his legs at 11, when he was run over by a train. Brought together by wrestling, they had developed a brother-like bond as they worked to overcome their disabilities.

Powerful story!

Clear, crisp, inspired writing. The author was a perfect choice for narrator. Definitely a top-ten audiobook.

Acclaimed biographer Donald Spoto explores the roots of Hitchcock’s obsessions - with food, murder, and idealized love, among others - and traces the origins of his incomparable, bizarre genius, from his childhood and education to the golden years of his career. Based on interviews with his writers, actors, and longtime associates, and on exhaustive research, The Dark Side of Genius is the definitive biography of Alfred Hitchcock.

Good story, ok narration, sloppy editing
Revisado: 06-07-22
This is a very well-written history of Hitchcock. The narrator made some odd pronunciation choices, but was generally ok in tone and tempo. The editing was noticeably rough. What appeared to be odd pauses by the narrator were later realized to be sloppy edits. Then at one point toward the end, the reverse: the editor cut the narrator off mid-word; and in the last 1/2 hour, the narration is interrupted by the narrator announcing the end of the original cassette, after which he resumes the story. Hard to imagine how that would get missed.
