Room by Emma Donoghue

I actually didn't want this harrowing and amazing book to end. Briefly, Room the story of a young woman who was kidnapped and put into a small room in the back yard of her captor's house. Her son Jack was born in captivity and narrates the whole story as he sees it. All he knows is the room and the television. He believes what's on television is not real. Eventually they escape and surprisingly perhaps things become more difficult for both Ma and Jack. His personality is so intriguing as he starts experiencing the world outside of the confines of the 11' by 11' shed he calls room as is his desire to return their as if it's a womb. Ma's reaction is continually surprising. Michal Friedman's reading of Jack's voice is superb with all of his grammmatical quirks. Ma's voice is kind of flat sometimes but caring, frustrated, angry and tired at others There is a larger cast that adds to the audio experience.
