Death is a difficult topic to approach. There is so much sadness and mystery surrounding this enigma in which we simply disappear. So stumbling upon this radio piece, I was hopeful for an answer, a theory tackling the unknowns of death. Kacey Ward's piece comes from a very emotional and painful past. There is no doubt about that. Though the narration is a bit monotoned, the sadness from the deaths seep through. The piece would have been more powerful had there been more elements to the audio. A time, a place that could have been conveyed. The narration is very powerful, as is the mother's storytelling. There is a delicate balance for a piece circling around a sensitive issue. Too many sound effects or ambiance audio clips makes the piece cheap and comical. Too little, and neither the message nor the piece is as powerful. It's like a lemon cake. The taste is so delicate, with too much frosting and sprinkles, the lemon kick disappears. With nothing to complement it, the cake is a little weak. It's still tasty, but it could do with a little more something.
