“Lillian Waters is a country and western star whose glow has faded– but hasn’t burned out. Carrington MacDuffie offers an excellent performance of this audiobook, lending “Water Lil” an appropriate rough-around-the-edges aura that suits her hardscrabble past….MacDuffie walks the line between gruff and vulnerable with just the right balance.”

“Narrator Carrington MacDuffie doesn’t miss a beat presenting the quirky town of Arnold Falls in the Hudson Valley, New York. Its lovably eccentric residents and the author’s charming writing are enhanced by MacDuffie’s sublime delivery. Listeners meet Jeebie Walker, a gay 40-something New York City transplant, and his wide circle of friends….Each character has appeal (even the villains), and the contrasting voices are flawless: 92-year-old shrewd waitress Aunt Doozy “forces” Meierhoffer to debate sweet but tough Jagoda, and spunky Nelle, who thinks “the Supremes improved when Diana Ross left,” sings beautifully for a Jagoda political ad. An uplifting gem.  Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award”

“Carrington MacDuffie brings her vocal skills and narrative art to this remarkable collection of Robinson’s essays — originally speeches given at various colleges and universities. MacDuffie’s elegant intonation comes through in these challenging and thought-provoking works. Her clear delivery gives shape to the complex arguments and rewards the listener as the Pulitzer-Prize-winning novelist ranges from her contrarian appreciation of Puritan texts to contemporary critiques of deterministic science. She particularly lambastes those who miss the connections between metaphysics and the idea of the soul, thereby detaching beauty from religious faith. Robinson’s brilliance illuminates this audiobook, and she could have no better narrator than MacDuffie.”

The release of Steven Spielberg’s movie “The Post” dovetails nicely with the recent unabridged recording of Katharine Graham’s Pulitzer-Prize-winning autobiography, published in 1997. Narrator Carrington MacDuffie gives a fine performance, delivering the book in a civilized, matter-of-fact voice that accords with the spirit in which it was written. Graham gives a candid account of her development from dutiful daughter and wife to the “Iron Lady,” a sobriquet, we see, that owed more to the sexism of the day than to her character.”

“Narrator Carrington MacDuffie sustains the emotional roller coaster ride in this mystery featuring defense attorney Barbara Holloway. MacDuffie is charged with delivering both male and female voices that run the emotional gamut from concern and horror to excitement and joy. She uses Wilhelm’s keen character development to its full advantage to portray the many characters, including an unusual number of suspects. Navigating the choppy waters of murder, greed, and secrets, MacDuffie moves fluidly from one character to the next, subtly changing tonality and inflection. In the courtroom, she never loses momentum as the drama is played out, culminating in Holloway’s strategic closing argument.”

“Narrator Carrington MacDuffie narrates the Bright and Fletcher mysteries for a reason—she can act, she does a great job with accents, and she gives each character just the right voice. Criminal lawyer Darren Fletcher and his romantic and legal partner, Izzy Bright, are hired to find the killer of a retired Supreme Court justice’s nephew, who was found skewered by a large sword on the Justice’s private island. MacDuffie effectively steers listeners through this quirky, romantic mystery packed with enough twists and turns to satisfy the most discerning listener. MacDuffie is especially spot-on portraying Fletcher, a man with flexible ethics, wit to spare, and honor in spades.”

“At times, the women come off like a chatty coffee klatch, freely dishing and swapping intimacies, a tone that may leave listeners feeling like they’re outside of the conversation. But Carrington MacDuffie, a vocalist in her own right, carries the load well, capturing the pair’s chummy tone as they swap heavily female-centric insights and engage in poetic free flights.”

“Carrington MacDuffie’s rich voice is a perfect match for Quindlen’s exquisite story about 60-year-old Rebecca Winter, a once famous photographer who moves to a remote country cottage, hoping to find herself. MacDuffie captures Rebecca’s melancholy at leaving her decadent New York City lifestyle behind, her strength as she discovers how being alone can heal, and her dry humor as she accepts the situations and people that come her way… The story is both touching and humorous as complex themes are balanced by a sweet love story. MacDuffie’s natural style and subtle character voices add even more charm to the story, keeping the listener engaged from start to finish.”

“The implosion of Lance Armstrong’s career was swift and complete, and author Juliet Macur watched it all unfold from the front row. Her marvelous journalism gets a performance-enhancing boost from narrator Carrington MacDuffie, whose straightforward delivery is a perfect fit. Macur, a reporter with the New York Times, not only had access to Armstrong himself during her research but also interviewed countless members of his family and inner circle to create this unflattering portrait of a cyclist who was willing to win at any cost. MacDuffie’s narration captures the author’s frustration with Armstrong’s refusal to take responsibility, but she never sounds judgmental or strident. She sets a brisk pace and effortlessly carries listeners all the way to the finish line.”
