Rosamund Pike was a beautiful narrator. I can’t imagine anyone voicing these beloved characters more faithfully.

Horse Sister riding through sound waves

Revisado: 02-21-25

I’m so happy she created a family of friends, fellow travelers in music, and the natural world. That her horses are her teachers and brothers is beautiful. My sons and I share her love of cats and their singular medicine, they’re also funny as all get out. I can hear the stories of her life in the shimmering heatwaves of her voice and guitar and stories. That she sees the arc of history through women and horses is part of what makes her like no other. I had to go take a walk in the woods after listening to it.

The arc of wild minds and sound.

Revisado: 02-20-25

I loved All of it. The downtown NYC scene of the ‘70s and ‘80s, which I experienced myself and look back with great fondness. Chris and Debbie’s enduring friendship and all the stories starting with Chris’ childhood. My heart cracks for Chris and his lovely family in their unimaginable loss.

The story I’ve been waiting to hear

Revisado: 02-04-25

That lifelong love of the visceral in rock, the history and beauty of Paris, mourning missing Carnaby Street era London, small towns in America and open fields I connect to her story. What a joy and heartbreak to listen to. Her loss of two band mates and friends… I relate

Tears containing tiny beautiful worlds

Revisado: 12-26-24

I know for sure and certain I’ll revisit this land of a fellow sister mother traveler, maybe in the wake of a sorrow yet to come or just a new moon or heck, when I miss hearing Jenny Slate talk. She reminds me to summon my familiars when I need company doing stuff around the house I’ve been putting off. They get to go on walks in the woods with me, they won’t mind.

I loved everything about this book. There are deep wounds she has that I don’t but in seeking out her familiars I am reminded to seek out mine, Thank you Sarah.

I want this story to continue

Revisado: 10-02-24

I’ve become so enamored of the sisters and Dan that it’s a sorrow I can’t hear some of the rest of their story, their lives. This was Wonderful!!

Time Machine Troubadour

Revisado: 08-11-24

I’ve listened to Richard Thompson since 1972 as a teenage dreamer wanting to transport myself back to the time of Arthur. Fairport Convention took me there. To hear about his life and the ‘60s and ‘70s British folk scene and all the musicians I’ve been fascinated by in his burnished copper kettle voice was a joy. I’ve long been bewitched by him and Sandy and Anne Briggs. That “Beeswing” came to be as a song from Sandy’s stories and his only seeing her sleeping form is Beautiful. There are so many little movies in my head that belong to his songs. 1952 Vincent Black Lightning, another that is so vivid. . I missed seeing him this year play in my own hometown. This give’s a salve to the heart.
Life’s rich tapestry indeed!!

One for Sorrow Two for Joy

Revisado: 10-12-23

In the alternate universe of people recreated from history, I believe in all of them. I’m getting a bit choked up to have not met Mrs. Touchet and taken a walk with her. Of Mr. Bogle and his son Henry and his family, I would hope I could have been a friend to them as well, if they’d have me. I take in everything Zadie Smith writes whether a book in my hands or living in my ears for the days it takes to hear her stories. I’m always bewitched.
