Delia writes with great self awareness. She is not self deprecating nor blindly boastful. There’s a lovely balance in her writing. Really enjoyed listening to her story!

Story
Hourglass is an inquiry into how marriage is transformed by time—abraded, strengthened, shaped in miraculous and sometimes terrifying ways by accident and experience. With courage and relentless honesty, Dani Shapiro opens the door to her house, her marriage, and her heart, and invites us to witness her own marital reckoning--a reckoning in which she confronts both the life she dreamed of and the life she made, and struggles to reconcile the girl she was with the woman she has become.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
This, more than any of her other writing, feels raw and honest. She's succeeded in weaving a story that is profoundly hers and yet universal.
