Acerca de esta escucha

Critics have compared her work to that of Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston, but J. California Cooper has a warm, witty style that’s definitely her own. Each of her short stories is a gem of downhome wisdom, polished with a bit of gossip, some heartbreak, and lots of humor.

In "Funny Valentines" a "simple" woman draws one heart on Valentine’s Day and divides it among the people she loves, until all but one of them lies in the cemetery. "Living" portrays a man in midlife crisis who leaves his loving wife and pleasant country home for a taste of high city living and returns with a new perspective on life. "Spooks" is the tongue-in-cheek tale of a man who masquerades as a ghost in order to outsmart an unscrupulous suitor and win the heart of a vulnerable widow.

Sometimes sad, sometimes funny, and always touching, J. California Cooper’s characters enlighten us and enrich us as they find love in unlikely places. The warm narrations will give listeners a sense of chatting with nosy but well-meaning neighbors over the back fence.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Told in first-person, in a lively, unobtrusive black dialect, these tales, set in both country and city, are lit with wisdom and high-spirited humor." ( Publishers Weekly)

People do the darnedest things...

The author is brilliant in articulating and capturing the essence and absurdness with a bit of humor mixed in of what lies in the heart, mind, and character of some folks.

Wish there were more of her book on Audible.

I am an AVID J. California Cooper fan!! When she passed away a few years ago I felt like I lost another Auntie. I have bought her books in multiple sets for friends, soldiers, and family members to share her gift of storytelling and wisdom only obtained by living, learning, and loving. I would love to narrate her books also, but those that did on this one did a fine job. So thank you all!!

J. California Cooper never dissapoints!

The narration was excellent! Will listen again.
The messages, or lessons learned are always timeless.

I love J. California Cooper. She is my favorite.

She is my favorite writer. I always get lost in her books. I love how her endings are often unexpected. The best person doesn't always end up on top, which is realistic and that's what I enjoy.
