This Must Be the Place

De: Maggie O'Farrell

Narrado por: Thomas Judd, Penelope Rawlins

An addictive and unforgettable novel of a marriage in freefall, shortlisted for the Costa Novel Award 2016.

A Richard and Judy Pick 2017.

A top 10 best seller, This Must Be the Place by Maggie O'Farrell crosses time zones and continents to reveal an extraordinary portrait of a marriage.

A reclusive ex-film star living in the wilds of Ireland, Claudette Wells is a woman whose first instinct, when a stranger approaches her home, is to reach for her shotgun. Why is she so fiercely protective of her family and what made her walk out of her cinematic career when she had the whole world at her feet?

Her husband Daniel, reeling from a discovery about a woman he last saw 20 years ago, is about to make an exit of his own. It is a journey that will send him off-course, far away from the life he and Claudette have made together. Will their love for one another be enough to bring Daniel back home?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A complex, riveting novel of love and hope that grips at the heart." (The Sunday Times)

Disappointing

I found this book disappointing, having recently read 'Instructions for a heatwave' by Maggie O'Farrell, which I enjoyed. The writing seemed self-conscious and mannered, and I didn't care for the male narrator. I couldn't get into it so I returned it.
