About this listen

No life is simple, and no life is without sorrow. No life is perfect.

Two middle-aged men meet on an internet date. Each has been scarred by a previous relationship; each has his own compelling reasons for giving up on the idea of finding love.

But still they both turn up for the dinner, feel the spark and the possibility of something more.

Feel the fear of failing again, of being hurt and humiliated and further annihilated by love.

How can they take the risk of falling in love again. How can they not?

Despite truly enjoying the story I could not finish as the narrator was so bad, His speech is so slurred it’s practically incoherent. His enunciation almost non existent. Totally ruined a great book. Please re-record this title!

Great perspective on long term love
