Yes, the True Grit audiobook is great. I have a long commute. Thank god for audiobooks. True Grit sticks out in my memory for the story and for the reader.
I also liked: Oryx and Crake (Atwood), Swamplandia (Karen Russell), Telegraph Avenue (Michael Chabon), The Third Reich (Bolano), and Train Dreams (Denis Johnson).

I definitely agree: She has a nice drawl as Mattie, knows the book since she was ten, and what she has to say about it is as at least as smart as her own books.

Just finished reading True Grit and can only imagine that a narrated version would be sublime.

I will leave it to others to determine whether the choice of Donna Tartt as reader was a wise one.
love,
