Ali joins "A Universe of Wishes" audiobook cast
Ali added another audiobook under his growing list of credits with “A Universe of Wishes”, a young adult fantasy short story collection from We Need Diverse Books. The anthology is edited by Dhonielle Clayton (The Belles) and features some of the best own-voices children's authors, including New York Times bestselling authors Libba Bray (The Diviners), V. E. Schwab (A Darker Shade of Magic), Natalie C. Parker (Seafire), and many more. In this multicast audiobook, Ali reads the role of Omar in Tochi Onyebuchi’s short story “Habibi”, where a boy from Long Beach and a boy from Gaza begin a strange correspondence.
Ali wishes to thank Billy Collura at CESD Talent, director Simone Barros, producer Sarah Jaffe as well as the team at Penguin Random House Audio for this wonderful opportunity. The audiobook will be available for purchase and download through your preferred audiobook provider on December 8th, 2020.
