Behind the Mic Podcast

Golden Voice narrator Stefan Rudnicki is an Audie Award winner and nominee for many Science Fiction and Fantasy audiobooks, and he is much loved by listeners in these genres. His distinct deep pitch and steady pace also make him a popular narrator for historical audiobooks and biographies. He has landed on AudioFile’s Best Audiobooks of the Year list and has won numerous Earphones Awards over the course of narrating hundreds of audiobooks. He won a Grammy for Best Children’s Album for THE CHILDREN’S SHAKESPEARE. He is known for his gravitas and confidence in his narrations.

In today’s episode, host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss Stefan’s narration of Joseph Conrad’s THE ROVER. This is Conrad’s last complete work, the story of a French sailor who, having spent the last fifty years of his life roaming the seas, returns home to France in the aftermath of the Revolution. Listeners can hear how Rudnicki’s resonant voice meanders through all the picturesque descriptions of the countryside and intuitively reflects the natural cadence of Conrad’s prose.
