About this listen
Hell - part mystery, part domestic meditation, part horror story - is a brilliantly eerie novel in which three households coexist in a single restless vision: a dollhouse; a dysfunctional family in 1950s Philadelphia; and the cottage home of Edwina Moss, a 19th-century expert on domestic management.
While the inhabitants of the dollhouse are powerless to shape their destiny, the four members of the Philadelphia family dedicate themselves to mutual vigilance, as if it might be possible to forestall disaster. Meanwhile, Edwina Moss concedes domestic control to the imagination and, finally, to the spirit of the great culinary artist and chef to Napoleon, Antonin Careme.
©2019 Kathryn Davis (P)2019 Blackstone Audio, Inc.I didn't look at any reviews on Goodreads before buying this book. If I had, I would have realized how complex a story it is. It was on sale for a really good price and I was looking for fiction about hell.
The prose really is beautiful and the narration is outstanding but you really need to give this audiobook your full attention or you will be lost, as I was when listening to this. In fact, I think even when really concentrating it's just so complex that it's hard to know what's going on. It may be intentional. I wouldn't know.
I enjoyed the prose and the narration even if I didn't know what was going on.
