Turpin’s perfect diction and melodic intonation take listeners through Verdelle’s worshipful delight at Miss Chloe’s attentions and even their sometimes prickly moments. Turpin’s narration is intimate, insightful, and suffused with admiration for both of these talented women. Her performance makes their unique story a journey worth taking.
