About this listen

The New York Times-bestselling, National Book Award-winning author of The Friend brings her singular voice to a story about the meaning of life and death, and the value of companionship.

The woman at the heart of this extraordinary novel finds that everyone she meets has a common need: the urge to talk about themselves and to have an audience for their experiences. And so she tries to pay attention, to imagine and listen to what those around her are going through. But then an old friend makes an extraordinary request and draws her into an intense and transformative experience of her own.

Honesty. Witty. Sad.

Erudite. Rich. Generous. And she can write! Says so much about something that can’t be said.

Depressing and Philosophical

I read this twice this week. Yet, it is one of the most depressing and philosophical story I’ve read. Am I old enough to start contemplating about death and what my life meant? Nunez has successfully made me wonder in different parts of the book. It’s a refreshing style of storytelling, one that has left me wanting and unsure of how it all ended. I recommend to read on a sunny day preferably with a bubbly in hand.
