Julia Ames, after a youth marked by upheaval and emotional turbulence, has found herself on the placid plateau of mid-life. But Julia has never navigated the world with the equanimity of her current privileged class. Having nearly derailed herself several times, making desperate bids for the kind of connection that always felt inaccessible to her, she finally feels, at age fifty seven, that she has a firm handle on things. She’s unprepared, though, for what comes next.

Kind of meh
Revisado: 07-08-24
Very well written, wonderfully performed but the story itself is kind of a nothing burger. I kept waiting for the dramatic moment and when it came, it was kind of a letdown.

Ever since 1492, when Christopher Columbus made landfall in the New World and was hailed as a heavenly being, the accidental god has haunted the modern age. From Haile Selassie, acclaimed as the Living God in Jamaica, to Britain's Prince Philip, who became the unlikely center of a new religion on a South Pacific island, men made divine - always men - have appeared on every continent. And because these deifications always emerge at moments of turbulence - civil wars, imperial conquest, revolutions - they have much to teach us.

The subject interested me and the reviews were stellar. However, the narration is about the worst I've ever heard. The narrator speaks in a dull monotone, with virtually no expression. At times it sounded as if she were bored or at least very sleepy. I wanted to return it but I was informed it was not eligible for return. Too bad, a wasted credit.
