Suffering from depression but desperate for 'normality', Rachel Cullen found herself in failing relationships, the wrong career and a reliance on alcohol and chocolate to get her through each day. Stuck in an endless cycle of mental misery, she put on a pair of old trainers. She'd never been able to think of herself as a 'runner' before, and the first time she forced herself out the door, she knew it would hurt. Everywhere. She just didn't realise how much it would heal her, too.

I can’t believe I made it to the end. I feel like I just completed a marathon! The story has lots of promise, but unfortunately the writing is sloppy, repetitive, and lazy. The narrator is someone I wish I liked, but can’t. She’s just kind of a “dick” (her word). The performance was stoically well read, but Ms. Martin’s accent was difficult to understand at times (for me, at least.)

We are excited to present our members with a gift that is truly unique: an original essay, available exclusively here at Audible, written and voiced by best-selling author – and fellow listener – Ann Patchett. This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage is a very real love story, and one that is much more about the journey than the destination.

Where does This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is one of the best. Granted, I haven't listened to a lot, but I loved this one! Too bad it was only an essay...
Who was your favorite character and why?
Ann-- she's a lot like me :)
What about Ann Patchett’s performance did you like?
Everything
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Her use of metaphor (the burning house, the water, etc.) to express emotions for which words sometimes aren't enough
Any additional comments?
Thank you, Ann, and Audible. This is an essay I will remember for a long time...
