Stone Soup

When three traveling monks pondering the question of happiness enter a village, only one curious girl comes out of her home to interact with them. Eventually, curiosity about how to make soup from three stones brings more delectable items to the pot and harmony to the village. Narrator B.D. Wong is as mellow and rich as the soup! His resonant voice gives gentle authority to each monk. His leisurely pacing leaves time for contemplation and for the peeking villagers to open their doors and hearts as they offer additional ingredients to the original "recipe." To conclude the recording, the author details the story's odyssey from Europe to China and his personal odyssey as an artist. A.R. (c) AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine
