Meryl Streep Reading Patchett = Perfection
Revisado: 09-18-23
I always enjoy AnnPatchett’s work made all the more indelible by Meryl Streep reading and performing all the parts. I just finished on my morning commute and I am depressed that it’s over. Lovely tender story which mirrors the story of our Town at its heart

Historia
When faced with an empty nest, Kari decides to spread her wings. Giving up a job she loves, she sets off to walk across a whole country. A big one. A contemporary take on an ancient experience, Pilgrim is an entertaining and moving memoir of Kari’s 900-kilometer walk to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. In classic pilgrim fashion, she meets and befriends an array of companions along the way, from all walks of life, united by a common sincerity of purpose. Battling through sun and snow, mud and mountains, blisters and bedbugs, her real destination turns out to be "deep peace".

Completely Captured by this Walk

I will be doing only one stage of the Camino in Spring. I am unsure if I can do that much but this story makes me want to try more than ever and somehow makes me believe I can go back again to do more if not the whole thing. Beautifully told and did such a splendid job of creating a sense of place along the way AND I learned of some things to pack! Thank you.

Historia
In 2017, a routine network television investigation led to a story only whispered about: one of Hollywood’s most powerful producers was a predator, protected by fear, wealth, and a conspiracy of silence. As Farrow drew closer to the truth, shadowy operatives, from high-priced lawyers to elite war-hardened spies, mounted a secret campaign of intimidation, threatening his career, following his every move, and weaponizing an account of abuse in his own family.

Gripping
Revisado: 02-20-20
I first listened to the podcast based on this book and with each episode I said aloud in the car “Holy Shit”.
Just finished listening to the entire book. The stories are gripping and horrifying, shocking and I hate to admit also entertaining dropping the listener into a world both all too familiar AND unbelievable. This is an epic Hero’s Journey by Farrow - one of the most important of events, and books of our time. Gratitude to Farrow, McCue, the New Yorker and THE WOMEN!

Full hearted, humanity and truth telling.
Revisado: 04-30-19
Super sorry when this book was over. I appreciated the full hearted, humanity and truth of Chelsea’s telling in the writing but also in the reading. I’ve always appreciated her astute, sharp, smart take on the world, now even more so. We’ve all been formed by something along the way, the unearthing is always fascinating even when it is grueling and painful. Thank you.
