Notes on an Execution

De: Danya Kukafka

Narrado por: Jim Meskimen, Mozhan Marnò

Ansel Packer is scheduled to die in twelve hours. But this is not his story.

Ansel doesn't want to die; he wants to be celebrated, understood. Yet now he awaits the same fate he forced on those girls, years ago.

This is the story of the women who survive.

As the clock ticks down, three women—a mother, a sister, a detective—reckon with the choices that culminate in tragedy, the impact on those in its wake, and the possibility of redemption.

Fascinating read

Wow! Fascinating read! Probably one of the best reads in working through trauma and healing!

Gripping, harrowing, marvellous

The way the author weaves the past, present and infinite possible futures together against such a backdrop makes us question what it means to love and what it means to suffer. Her characters and the performances of them here are so captivating that I had to listen twice back to back. Thank you for this book.
