À propos de cet audio

In February 1835, the cold New Orleans streets are alight with masked Mardi Gras revelers as the American Theater’s impresario, Lorenzo Belaggio, brings a magnificent yet controversial operatic version of Othello to town. But it’s pitch-black in the alley where free man of color Benjamin January hears a slurred whisper, spies the flash of a knife, and is himself wounded as he rescues Belaggio from a vicious attack. Could competition for audiences - or for Belagio’s affections - provoke such violent skulduggery? Or is Shakespeare’s tragic tale, with its spectacle of a Black man’s passion for a White beauty, one that some Creole citizen - or American parvenu - would do anything to keep off the stage? The soaring music will lead January into a tangle of love, hate, and greed more treacherous than any onstage drama, as he must discover who is responsible...and who will die upon a kiss.

good

Reviews of this one seem all across the board, but I quite enjoyed it. I'm listening to these as they are released on Audible and am delighted whenever I see a new one pop up.
First, the narrator is great, and that helps. But I don't know, I liked the mystery (which, I think, had a satisfying solution) I liked the theatre setting, and I appreciated the various history lessons. The setting in general was extremely vivid. (I think maybe it helps that I'm not from New Orleans, so any inaccuracies go right over my head.)
I like January, I like the Columbo-like American detective, I like the chronically ill Irish musician/ladies' man, and I'm firmly invested in the lives of January's family, at this point.
I look forward to seeing what happens next.
