Acerca de esta escucha
Eighty-seven-year-old Viola Garland has secrets that have tormented her for over 60 years. She has remained silent to protect her family. When human remains are discovered at a Rayes County building site, a choice Viola made as a young woman hides no more.
The lie has kept the family disjointed, but Viola knows the truth will surely destroy it.
What is unearthed shakes the family foundation, leaving those behind wondering who they are and how they fit into the only family they’ve ever known.
Set in the 1936 rural south, Sister Blackberry is a story about women who are friends, sisters, mothers, daughters, and granddaughters, and how their relationships are affected by secrets, a lifetime of omissions, and outright lies from the past.

At times stern, at other times patient, at times perceptive, at other times in sad denial, Olive Kitteridge, a retired schoolteacher, deplores the changes in her little town of Crosby, Maine, and in the world at large, but she doesn’t always recognize the changes in those around her: a lounge musician haunted by a past romance; a former student who has lost the will to live; Olive’s own adult child, who feels tyrannized by her irrational sensitivities; and her husband, Henry, who finds his loyalty to his marriage both a blessing and a curse.

Tena was born in 1953 in a tiny Mississippi town close to the Alabama border, where the legacy of slavery and racial injustice still permeated every aspect of life.

The Waverleys have always been a curious family, endowed with peculiar gifts that make them outsiders even in their hometown of Bascom, North Carolina. Even their garden has a reputation, famous for its feisty apple tree that bears prophetic fruit, and its edible flowers, imbued with special powers.
Generations of Waverleys tended this garden. Their history was in the soil. But so were their futures.
Together again in the house they grew up in, the Waverley sisters realize they must deal with their common legacy - if they are ever to feel at home in Bascom - or with each other.
