About this listen

An Almost Impossible Story is one of the funniest, funkiest audiobooks you will ever listen to. Award-winning author George Tombs takes you on a richly textured sound journey, performing all 45 character voices and some of the music himself, as you discover the Greys...one of the weirdest and most lovable families you will ever come across.

In this magical-realist coming-of-age saga, quirky Grandmother Grieve decides the young hero, Richard Grey, has to wear a gas mask in his own home in Quebec...all because of the family cat. He struggles to find his place in the world, helping Mother Augusta recover her health, having traumatic encounters with ghosts, penetrating family secrets with Brother Andrew, heading for university, and becoming a journalist. Richard experiences ups and downs with the girl next door, Chloe Trahan....

Despite all these misadventures, he never quite loses hope.... But will anything ever go right for Richard?
