About this listen

In this pause-resisting, poignant saga of love, loss, control and miscommunication, one woman treads a tightrope between marital loyalty and powerful maternal instincts.

Three husbands have tested Phyllis' aspirations of marriage and motherhood to the full, and now she faces a dilemma. If she accepts a fourth marriage proposal, might the consequences rock the turbulent path she already treads alongside her four offspring? Her decision could change her future and family dynamics forever.

Very good story - lovely for downtime after work, and Sundays. Enjoyed the ‘unfolding’ of Phyllis - from childhood through her undulating adulthood. I haven’t reached the end yet but am enjoying it.
But - for possibly the first time listening to an audible book (and I’ve listened to dozens) the narrator made this whole experience, for me. She has a seemingly natural emotion ….. conveyed amazingly well in every character. There is a (….I don’t know what it’s called!) strong breathiness which seems to enhance laughter, anger, fear, ebullience, etc etc, perfectly! I’ve not heard a voice like it ! I’ll look for her narration again 👏🏽

I simply LOVE Larner Wallace-Taylor’s ’s voice

I enjoyed this - it made me think.
I liked the way it reflects real life and relationships - always changing, affecting each other in ways we can never really comprehend, making decisions that don’t turn out the way we hoped, yet moving onwards towards whatever future lies ahead, whilst carrying with us the ever-growing ball of moss we’ve collected along the way.
I liked the genuine way it was written - no simple cliches or lazy plot lines, and no unrealistic melodramas … just the “stuff” of life.

A thoughtful book about real life
