This book has changed me
Revisado: 08-18-23
I have never heard anything but glowing reports about this book and, because of that I have been reluctant to read it and maybe dislike it and find myself in the minority. But.
This has become one of my top three books of all time.
This book is full of beauty, truth and goodness and made me long for “home” in a way that made my soul ache.
The narrator read it the way I suppose it should be savored: thoughtfully, giving inflection to the nuance in the voices and by his rich cadence.
I immediately started it over again, and am not sure one more reading will be quite enough to last me for a while.

Historia
Following the death of his little sister and the publication of his New York Times best-selling memoir The Little Way of Ruthie Leming, Rod Dreher found himself living in the small community of Starhill, Louisiana, where he grew up.

I have been immensely helped and provoked to thought with this book and the narrator was excellent. This is now one of my Top 10 books which have shaped my life and I will recommend it to many, I know.

Historia
Robert Louis Stevenson's "Happy Thought" betokens all the joy and wonder of A Child's Garden of Verses. The poetic musings of this well-loved classic recapture childhood mysteries that range from the everyday rituals of home ("The Land of Nod," "Escape at Bedtime," and "My Bed Is a Boat") to the curiosities of a wider world ("Foreign Lands," "Pirate Story," and "Where Go the Boats?").

A Title I Consider A “Must-Own!”
Revisado: 08-06-22
You really can’t improve on Robert Louis Stevenson, for his beautiful words and equally beautiful thoughts. The narrator does an incredible job of bringing them to life in this title. I have literally listened to it 10+ times myself!

The Perfect Narrator for a Perfect Story
Revisado: 08-06-22
I adore Juliet Stevenson’s narrations, and truly can’t imagine anyone one else doing justice to Jane Austen’s words. This book was no exception.

This was so captivating. I can't imagine getting so physically sick that I had to hospitalized as they did when it first aired on radio, but I did hold my breath a few times. ;-) Every minute was suspenseful.
