From Mass Media Reviewers..."In a relaxed and splendid performance, Max McLean an actor with the curious hybrid accent, recounts the Book of Genesis from Creation to Jacob's reconciliation with Esau. The sacrifice of Isaac is particularly powerful, especially in the hands of a masterful tale-spinner such as McLean." "Bible stories told with laughter and affection. . . . Max McLean has complete command . . . his booming, soothing voice is a little like Patrick Stewart's bringing the creation of Dickens alive. At other times he is the soul of Tevye, politely expressing slight differences with God. . . . There are worse ways to introduce the next generation to the Bible than to have them hear Mr. McLean speaks with such affection of its heroes and intone, 'God called the expanse sky,' as if sky were the most brilliant name in the world." "McLean offers a clarion voice, precise annunciation, and a storyteller's instinct for the dramatic moment . . . . a revealing recounting . . . more compelling than watching a thousand extras raise the dust in a battle scene." |
