Accent & Dialect Samples


Alabama & French

Picture
"Christina Delaine is a wonder. The way she captures the Prophet’s gritty voice, Alabama accent, even his slight lisp; the panic and terror in Michael’s voice the first time the Prophet hears her speak in the abandoned restroom, while she’s taking opioids; the way the Devil speaks in the Prophet’s vernacular at first, but gradually takes on a different voice and his own speech patterns. Breathlessness and urgency in all the right places....If you haven’t yet read the novel, or if you prefer audiobooks, I recommend listening to Delaine’s beautiful interpretation." - Author Jaime Quatro
