From Homeland to Shakespeare:
Damian Lewis Narrates Audiobooks *UPDATED*
We always hear fans say, and cannot agree with them more, that Damian Lewis can read the phone book and they can listen to him all day. Having said that, why would we have to hear Damian read the phonebook to us as we have much better books out there he could read for us?

And what about our artists, the stories that we need to watch, the performances that entertain and sustain us? Obviously they have been affected in a major way.
