This is by far one of the best-read, best-expressed audio books I have ever encountered. Mr. Malkovich is in-freaking-credible. My jaw dropped. The version I have (from PBS in fact) sometimes interrupts Malkovich with a "stand-in" voice that I imagine, having never read the book myself, is reading a summary text for the abridging. That's irritating. But until I find the unabridged version of Mr. Malkovich's reading, I will never post this - it's a keeper. If you can order it, order it!
