About this listen
Tate "Talker" Walker has spent most of his life hiding his scars under a bright punk facade, and until he sat next to Brian Cooper on a bus, it worked. But Brian has spent his whole life being the invisible man, and he's used to looking below the surface. What he sees in Talker is a fragile and lovable human being.
Brian is outwardly straight, but Talker is desperate for love, and when Talker's behavior leads to some painful consequences, Brian is forced to come out of his closet—in dramatic fashion. He'll do anything to make sure Talker sees that he's the Prince Charming Talker has always needed.

The boy of your dreams; close but yet so far.
Would you listen to Talker again? Why?
Yes. The story is beautiful. It's subtle and it's down-to-Earth. Nothing's perfect and this shows how one deals with the imperfections and makes it pure.
I liked the musical intermissions to signify a new chapter and it relates to the personality of one of the characters.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Talker?
The non-phone phone sex talk.
What does David Kaplan bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
He brings expression to words. For instance, sometimes as the protagonist speaks, he follows his sentence with a exclamation thought. David does express it that keeps to the meaning.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes. I could have easily have if I had the chance.
Any additional comments?
Bonus points for having Audiobook Artwork that gives a good visualisation to the appearance of the characters. Especially for Tate.

made worse by the narrator
I am not sure why the story felt so distant. Is it the 3rd person past tense? Surely the narrator made it worse with his careful, explaining tone, sentence after sentence. He skipped emotions, voices, pauses, it was really bad. I am still not sure what happened to Talker or to Brian, and who has what characteristics. It was just one mess of sentences.
