Descripción Audio Book (CD). Condición: new. From AudioFile Using the lives of figures like Georgia OKeefe, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Gertrude Stein, the author explains how women over 45 can wield incredible influence and get whatever they want--including younger lovers. An expert on Machiavelli, she understands how social energy, status, and enjoyment evade most older women, but offers da Vincis Mona Lisa as an example of how the ordinary can become powerful--with the right strategies. Harriet Rubins silky voice is loaded with the very power she promotes. The urgency of her vocal presence is arresting but does not upstage the strength of her arguments. A feature of this production is a disc with a viewable appendix that attributes the many fascinating quotations. T.W. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright AudioFile, Portland, Maine Product Description Draws inspiration from Da Vinci's masterpiece to present a revisionist strategy for achieving power, success, and perpetual youthfulness, in a guide for middle-aged businesswomen that draws on the stories of iconic women throughout history and identifiesten methods for building one's talents and influence. Review Class 3 of Hampsted Primary School travels to Paris for sight-seeing and fun, only to find itself immersed in solving the theft of the Mona Lisa. An animated reading of the story gives the long narrative continuity and adds depth to the plot and characters. Forsyth keeps the action moving, enlivening each new part of the adventure with enthusiasm and the youthful reactions of the children. Seamless transitions between characters, plus her pleasant reading voice, greatly add to the listening experience. She performs the accents of the various French characters effectively, capturing the flavor of France and adding a touch of the exotic. Forsyth's voice catches just the right tones of excitement and suspense. P.A.J. AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 98]. Nº de ref. del artículo: DADAX1594839069
