Thank you, Booklist, for selecting Permanent Record as a 2013 Booklist Editors’ Choice: Audio for Youth! And thanks to YALSA for nominating Permanent Record to their 2013 Amazing Audiobooks for Young Adults list!
“Podehl’s reading of this dark and emotionally complex novel is convincing and flawless. Realistically voicing the monologues of the troubled Iranian American teen who is scrutinized and ridiculed because of his ethnicity, Podehl artfully reveals the depths of the teen’s despair. Listeners will relish the escalating moments of tension, right up to the dramatic conclusion.” —Booklist Editors’ Choice
Permanent Record would not be on any of these lists without the incredible performance of Nick Podehl and our awesome director (and my paisan, though no relation), Fred Stella.
