SA Seventeen-year-old Duddy Kravitz wants out of the Montreal Jewish ghetto in which he was raised and he has taken seriously his grandfather's motto, "a man without land is a nobody." On the way to getting his land he is ruthless and treats those who love him badly. Hecht is an excellent narrator NARRATOR. A pleader who draws narrs serviens narrator, a sergeant at law. Fleta, 1. 2, c. 37. Obsolete. with a facility for voicing accents (Jewish, Yiddish, French, Canadian) and gender differences. I would like to have heard a younger-sounding voice for Duddy who, after all, is only a teenager. In this performance he sounds so adult the listener has to keep being reminded that this is a young person. Sound effects--music, street noises, etc.--are a nice addition. The abridgment is by the author, so the story flows nicely without obvious gaps. Sue Rosenzweig, Consultant, Lincoln, RI S--Recommended for senior high school students. A--Recommended for advance students and adults. This code will help librarians and teacher working in high schools where there are honors and advanced placement students. This also will help extend KLIATT's usefulness in public libraries. |
