Narrated by
Layla
Refined, composed British female voice, ideal for audiobooks, documentary, and narration.
“If I have learned anything in this long life of mine, it is this:
In love we find out who we want to be; in war we find out who we are.
Today’s young people want to know everything about everyone.”
About this sample
The epigraph about love and war asks for restraint. Layla reads it refined and composed, letting the sentence do the work.
