Publisher's Summary
Behind him loom the figures of his dead wife, his beloved daughter, and his outrageous friend. In front of Lev lies the strangeness of the British: their hostile streets, their clannish pubs, their obsession with celebrity, their lonely flats.
London holds the alluring possibilities of friendship, sex, money, and a new career. But, more than this, the sense of belonging.

7 out of 10
I would rate this book even higher than 5 due the narrator. Great story line except I could have done without Sophie - too much info there. The rest of the book was informative and entertaining. How she gets into an East European head is a feat not many manage, but Rose Tremain is there from Page One. Very listenable.

FANTASTIC...ON EVERY LEVEL
What did you like most about The Road Home?
Rose Tremain's amazing book is rivalled only by Steven Pacey's narration. It is one of the best books I have read in my life. I have withdrawal symptoms since completing it...and just know that it is one of the rare books that I will re-read....or re-listen to!
What other book might you compare The Road Home to, and why?
It's one of those books that holds your attention from page 1. I don't really want to insult the author by comparing it to anything else.
What does Steven Pacey bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
His voice is so compelling. I was afraid when I started listening to books that the narrator would perhaps stress areas that the author had not intended. All I can say is that he is a genius...the accents...intonation...humour...male/female...even a bit of singing...he did it all. Bravo!!
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It made me laugh out very loud on many occasions. Once or twice I did feel a bit sad....but not as sad as I felt when it ended!
Any additional comments?
I might have gone a bit overboard in my comments but I cannot recommend this book highly enough. I have sent it to a friend and she is loving it already. Of course..the downside is that it will spoil me for other books...it's a hard act to follow!
