Acerca de esta escucha

Hoffman follows her celebrated bestseller The Probable Future with an evocative work that traces the lives of the various occupants of an old Massachusetts house over a span of two hundred years.

In a rare and gorgeous departure, beloved novelist Alice Hoffman weaves a web of tales, all set in Blackbird House. This small farm on the outer reaches of Cape Cod is a place that is as bewitching and alive as the characters we meet: Violet, a brilliant girl who is in love with books and with a man destined to betray her; Lysander Wynn, attacked by a halibut as big as a horse, certain that his life is ruined until a boarder wearing red boots arrives to change everything; Maya Cooper, who does not understand the true meaning of the love between her mother and father until it is nearly too late. From the time of the British occupation of Massachusetts to our own modern world, family after family's lives are inexorably changed, not only by the people they love but by the lives they lead inside Blackbird House.

These interconnected narratives are as intelligent as they are haunting, as luminous as they are unusual. Inside Blackbird House more than a dozen men and women learn how love transforms us and how it is the one lasting element in our lives. The past both dissipates and remains contained inside the rooms of Blackbird House, where there are terrible secrets, inspired beauty, and, above all else, a spirit of coming home.

Narrated by John Lee, Se Sands, Amy Rubinate, Paul Michael Garcia, Bernadette Dunne, Tavia Gilbert, Cassandra Campbell, Hillary Huber, Kirsten Potter, Carrington McDuffie, Kate Reading, and Laura Hicks.

Stories set around a property

I didn't realize this was a collection of stories about a run down property and the families that lived there over generations. It took a couple of stories until I realized the web running through. The book didn't disappoint though.

can't make my mind

I liked it but at the same time it is as if it was short stories not a continuation of characters

Delightful!

More from a master storyteller. These are stand-alone stories centered on an old seaside farmhouse and its inhabitants, that are also linked to the preceeding story. Interesting and entertaining, I throughly enjoyed both the writing and narration. I do recommend.

Very good, but too short!

Very good story concept. Got the hang of it quickly, but it ended way too soon!

My favorite Alice Hoffmann yet!!!

I adore Hoffmann which is provably obvious, though sometimes she could nail home a point more succinctly. But this book of short stories is quite special, even for her. It’s magical and lovely.

A lovely listen

I am a Hoffman fan, and enjoyed this lovely little book of short stories. I only wish it was a bit longer.

Interesting

The narration was good. The story itself is different as it tells the story of a house and it's occupants over the years. I enjoyed it.
