Good book on a fascinating subject, but...

I was excited to see a recent Audible release discussing the partition of India and Pakistan.
But the narrator...
The narrator isn't "bad", but the tone of the reading sounds like it would be more appropriate in a children's book or a novel. Too "cheerful " sounding for a book about an event that left millions dead and even more displaced and could easily blow up into WW3 at any moment.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
