Ulka Simone Mohanty narrates a joyous multicultural celebration of Christmas, Hanukkah, and Ramadan as two women, Maryam Aziz and Anna Gibson, are stranded in scenic Snow Falls, Canada, during a snowstorm. Mohanty projects a festive sense of humor as multiple disasters threaten the travelers. While Maryam deals with her sister's wedding postponements and Anna examines her life choices, Mohanty supports their emotional journeys with a comforting intimacy. Indian, American, and Canadian accents pepper the narration, giving listeners the feeling that Snow Falls welcomes everyone. Maryam's love interest, Saif, and Anna's new friend, Josh, both sound distinct in conversation. Clear delineation of citizens' and stranded travelers' voices make for a lively, fun listen. Mohanty fosters an atmosphere of wonder as travel delays turn into the best holiday ever. C.A. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2023]
