This book helped me to open my heart more to His love, to have more confidence in His love. Also to say “Let Him do it.” So helpful.

Having a psychological background, I thoroughly enjoyed the exploration of one’s beliefs and conscience. If you keep in mind the play on the id, ego and superego with the three main characters, The Painter, Lord Harry, and Dorian, respectively, as you listen, I found it to have added rich layers to the story.

Would you try another book from George Saunders and/or the narrators?

Yes, I'd like to read the 10th of December based upon other reviews of this book. I am new to Saunders. The literary quotes, for me, kept it from being fluid, and so it was difficult to enjoy listening to it. Maybe I'll give it (Audible version) another try later on, but in the meantime I'll see about getting a physical copy of the book.

What didn’t you like about the narrators’s performance?

The constant quoting of the references, I'd prefer a list of references online, connected to the description. I'd be able to review them before or after listening to a section of the book or for further research. I hadn't heard the citations of references in a recording prior to this book. I only made it about an hour into the book.

Any additional comments?

I look forward to reading (listening) to Saunders' other book.

This is the first fiction book I've listened to in quite some time. It was quite enjoyable and thought the narrator did a wonderful job. The story itself was moving, I also wasn't aware of the wartime happenings in the 40's. I would recommend!
