Another good L M Montgomery story.

Yes, it’s a little formulaic in the end but enjoyable nonetheless. Very capable narrator altogether worth the time for fans of Montgomery.

Odd sound quality

I normally love these and always come back but lately the words are so difficult to hear like the bass is way over-modulated. Is that just me?

Seventeen-year-old Noel Crowe is idling in the unexpected sunshine when Christy makes his first entrance into Faha, bringing secrets he needs to atone for. Though he can't explain it, Noel knows right then: something has changed. As the people of Faha anticipate the endlessly procrastinated advent of the electricity, and Noel navigates his own coming-of-age and his fallings in and out of love, Christy's past gradually comes to light, casting a new glow on a small world.

Just wonderful!
Revisado: 03-17-21
What an experience! Do yourself a favor and listen to This Is Happiness. The story carries a cast of characters reminiscent of a Dylan Thomas in a town on the verge of being left behind through a story with all the hilarious and tragic elements of “humanity.” The language the author employs is the telling is magical and the performance is perfect. I may have to listen all the way through again just to savor it one more time.

An urgent, no-holds-barred tale of gang life, guerrilla warfare, intergenerational trauma, and interconnected violence between the United States and El Salvador, Roberto Lovato’s memoir excavates family history and reveals the intimate stories beneath headlines about gang violence and mass Central American migration, one of the most important, yet least-understood humanitarian crises of our time - and one in which the perspectives of Central Americans in the United States have been silenced and forgotten.

Difficult to hear but important to know.
Revisado: 12-18-20
This is an excellent audio book about a very difficult past that we, as United States citizens, are complicity bound with. The message that people cannot move forward unless they know and acknowledge their past—no matter how difficult—is an important one for all people. I wish it had a happy ending but there is hope for the future and it’s so important to know what is behind the massive migration of people from the south and how the violence has developed. I recommend this well written and read book.

At age 19, Natasha Trethewey had her world turned upside down when her former stepfather shot and killed her mother. Grieving and still new to adulthood, she confronted the twin pulls of life and death in the aftermath of unimaginable trauma and now explores the way this experience lastingly shaped the artist she became. With penetrating insight and a searing voice that moves from the wrenching to the elegiac, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Natasha Trethewey explores this profound experience of pain, loss, and grief.

A Painful but Beautiful Journey
Revisado: 09-25-20
Natasha Trethewey has a graceful mastery of words and a sharp introspection that make this book worth the effort. Each painful step brings the reader closer to the inevitable tragic ending but brings the author closer to a deep understanding if not closure (“a wound that never heals”). The only criticism I have is that the two long verbatim conversations between the victim and her killer are long and tortuous. It is the only point in the book where the story seems to stall, but perhaps this was necessary for the narrative.
