Acerca de esta escucha
Celebrated reporter, Washington insider, and bestselling author Sally Quinn returns with a riveting tale of forbidden desire and spiritual reckoning.
Sally Quinn, acclaimed Washington Post journalist, bestselling author, and cofounder with historian and author Jon Meacham of The Washington Post’s On Faith website, is known for sparking national conversations around politics, spirituality, and love. In her latest novel, Silent Retreat, Quinn presents listeners with a vivid and provocative love story that walks the electric tightrope between faith and sensuality, restraint and ecstasy, duty and longing.
When prize-winning reporter Sybilla Sumner checks into a monastery for a silent retreat, romance is the last thing on her mind. Seeking solace amid the rolling hills of the Shenandoah Valley, she hopes to find clarity away from the pressures of her crumbling marriage and high-profile life.
Across the monastery’s quiet halls, Archbishop James Fitzmaurice Kelly is battling his own inner turmoil. A man of deep conviction and unwavering faith, he has spent decades honoring his vow of celibacy—even as he questions the very institutions he serves. But when their paths cross in silence, the unspoken connection between them ignites into something neither expected nor could resist.
A mesmerizing blend of passion, intellect, and spiritual exploration, Silent Retreat is a novel that dares to ask what we sacrifice in the name of devotion—and what we risk when we follow the call of the heart.

Historia
By early 1960s standards, Margaret Ryan, Viv Buschetti, and Bitsy Cobb, suburban housewives in a brand-new "planned community" in Northern Virginia, appear to have it all. The fact that "all" doesn't feel like enough leaves them feeling confused and guilty, certain the fault must lie with them. Things begin to change when they form a book club with Charlotte Gustafson—the eccentric and artsy "new neighbor" from Manhattan—and read Betty Friedan's just-released book, The Feminine Mystique.

Historia
In a rare window into some of her life’s pivotal moments, Melinda French Gates draws from previously untold stories to offer a new perspective on encountering transitions. Melinda will reflect on some of the most significant transitions in her own life, including becoming a parent, the death of a dear friend, and her departure from the Gates Foundation. The stories she tells illuminate universal lessons about loosening the bonds of perfectionism, helping friends navigate times of crisis, embracing uncertainty, and more.

Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Detective Stilwell has been "exiled" to a low-key post policing rustic Catalina Island, after department politics drove him off a homicide desk on the mainland.

Crossing all lines of protocol and jurisdiction, he starts doggedly working the case.

Historia
Perfect strangers Lucy and Greta have agreed to a house swap—and boy, are they going to regret it. Lucy’s hometown of Dallas has gone from home sweet home to vicious snake pit in the blink of an eye after her son makes a mistake he can’t undo. And Greta’s beloved flat in Berlin is suddenly up for grabs when her husband Otto takes a dream job in Texas without even telling her. In their rush to leave town, Lucy and Greta make a deal, pack their bags, and—thanks to martinis, desperation, and some very rusty German—have absolutely no idea what they’re getting themselves into.

Growing up in an isolated cabin in Montana in the mid-1990s, Jane knows only the world that she and her father live in: the woodstove that heats their home, the vegetable garden where they try to eke out a subsistence, the books of nineteenth-century philosophy that her father gives her to read in lieu of going to school. Her father is elusive about their pasts, giving Jane little beyond the facts that they once lived in the Bay Area and that her mother died in a car accident, the crash propelling him to move Jane off the grid to raise her in a Waldenesque utopia.

After an escalating fight about politics, he hauled off and punched his conspiracy theorist son-in-law. Horrified by what he'd done, by the state of the country and by his own spiraling mental health, Rhys chucked his smartphone out a car window and fled for a cabin in the woods, off the grid and with no one around—except a pack of hungry raccoons.
