The Performance Anomalies audiobook, read by Tony-nominated actor David Pittu, was released yesterday on Audible.

Pittu, who won the 2014 Best Male Solo Performance Audie award for his reading of Donna Tartt's The Goldfinch, describes his impression of Performance Anomalies:

"The machinations of covert dealings and foul play in the book’s story play out in a way that feels accurate and true to how one could imagine things playing out in international shadows these days. Like there are all these secret souls around the globe who keep everything running behind a façade of something more legitimate. I felt like I was in on something very real and dangerous."

David Pittu is the ideal actor to bring Performance Anomalies and Cono 7Q to the listening stage. Pittu's uncanny talent for creating unique voices and convincing accents is on vivid display in Performance Anomalies, as he breathes life into personas ranging from Chinese, Russian, and Kazakh to Pakistani, Ukrainian and Silicon Valley Californian.
