Acerca de esta escucha

A surprising gift brings closure for an elderly widow in a poignant story about grief, memory, and the persistence of love by the acclaimed, award-winning author of Miracle Creek.

Korean immigrant Mina Pak Johnson is clearing out the last of her husband’s things when she finds a picnic basket in his closet—a long-forgotten wedding present from her mother. With it comes decades of memories—of her mother’s wishes for her to be happy and her own shattered hopes for her first child—and regret at never having used it. Pushing her husband’s ashes and a bottle of wine in a rusty old stroller, Mina is determined to re-create the picnic they never had. But with it comes something Mina never expected, illuminating a loving gesture her husband made years ago.

Angie Kim’s A Planned Occasion is part of Good Intentions, a riveting collection of stories about the instincts, fears, and fierce love inherent in motherhood from award-winning, bestselling authors. Read or listen to each in a single sitting.

A Lesson in Living a Long Life

I'd forgotten the name of the Audible collection this is part of us Good Intentions, and as the narrator pronounced it at the end, I thought of good intentions gone bad. This was very sad and a reminder to not keep your motives for doing something from your partner until it's too late to convey them. This author always gives me something new to ponder over.

On life and loss

I was not expecting this to be such a gut-wrenching short story, but it was beautifully written and narrated. I am now hooked on Angie Kim and searching for more of this authors work!

A good read

My heart ached for this widow who finds an old picnic basket that reveals a secret from her past. It is story about a mother's love and acceptance but it is also about a long happy marriage that still had secrets to reveal. How many have experienced this "putting off until time was right"? A story about lesson learned! A good read, enjoy!

This was a well written beautiful story. It was moving and bittersweet. The narration was also very good.

Lovely story❤️

Sometimes a short story can really pack an emotional punch. This is one of those stories. It isn’t about plot, it’s about a marriage. Lovely prose and perfect narration.

A moving tale of loss, grief regret and memoryies.

A moving tale of a widow’s loss, her attempt to assuage her guilt and rectify the wrong she caused him early on in their marriage.

Mina Pak Johnson, is moving from her marital home to a facility for senior citizens. While emptying her closets she comes across a wedding gift they received from her mother all those years ago. With it comes the memories of her mother and her concern that Mina, who is Korean, was marrying an American. She further discovers a decades old gift from her late husband, one that she blindly refused at the time.

A beautiful short story of love, loss, grief and memory. Angie Kim is the author of Miracle Creek and Happiness Falls.

Great short story

Everything about this short was good. It's well written and performed, just nothing spectacular. Well worth a listen if you like literary fiction!
