Thank you to AudioFile Magazine for recognizing these two fantastic books. It was a delight to get to narrate something close to my heart and stomach and I hope people are able to discover something they didn't know about French culture and food by listening! ![]() "Whether he's delivering the history of Roquefort cheese, the science behind bread-making, or the transformation of haute cuisine over time, Halstead's warm tones and alluring French accent evoke the wealth of details and surprises in these stories of food and its producers and chefs. Halstead conveys how deeply the French foods and wines he discusses are entrenched in each region's setting and history, making for a delectable and illuminating listening experience." -- AudioFile Magazine Check out the full review here! ![]() "Narrator Graham Halstead gives a top-notch performance of this entertaining and comprehensive commentary on the cultural, social, and political quirks of the French. Halstead's dry delivery and subtle intonation deftly infuse a delicate balance of irony and seriousness into a myriad of observations...[his] authentic French accent sprinkles cheekiness into the section titled "How to be French" and playfully conveys the sexy translations of English film titles and the discussion of how the French love of food permeates their verbal expressions. The nuances of French idiosyncrasies sparkle in this lively listening experience." -- AudioFile Magazine Check out the full review here!
