Review of Grandmother
Dulce Maria Mora
Posted on May 25, 2005 at 04:25 PM
Monique takes us on a sound rich visit to her grandmother’s. The topic is one we hear often, but rarely do we get a teen’s personal and witty perspective. Her delivery is flawless, like she wasn’t even trying at all. One of the things I love most about radio is listening to the texture of different people’s voices. This piece is a great example. The grandmother has a leisurely, husky voice; Mary Jackson’s is strong, almost feisty. Monique paints a picture in your mind, and skillfully tackles a harsh reality in the process.
