About this listen

Doubt plagues a new marriage when a young NASA engineer focuses more on the Apollo 11 moon landing than his own future in this poignant short story by bestselling author Olivia Hawker.

Alan is able to imagine every way critical equipment might break during the launch and landing of Apollo 11. But his experience in preventing cosmic disasters does nothing to prepare him for the pressures of a hasty marriage to a woman he barely knows—or the strain of keeping up appearances amid the shifting social attitudes of the late ’60s. When a crisis at home forces Alan back to earth, he’s faced with a choice he doesn’t know how to make: whether to let go or move forward.

Olivia Hawker’s Landing is part of A Point in Time, a transporting collection of stories about the pivotal moments, past and present, that change lives. Read or listen to each immersive story in a single sitting.

Excellent! Very interesting, as taken first person, the events of that time period. The stress must have been awful at times. I remember watching that launch on T.V.. Thank-you

I'm a big fan of Hawker's novels but this short comes up, we'll, short. It's just not very satisfying and neither character is particularly likeable. The narrator is quite good, though.

Meh

The writing wasn't good or bad. Nothing exciting or boring or memorable. It just was. I'm not sure what the point was from the author's side,... ??

I understand the message for those that read it. I did like the very last scene. That is all though. It felt like a waste of my time.

Not recommended.

Not for me

I have always enjoyed the other books by Hawker but this was terrible! Terrible writing that sounded like a teenager wrote it and the plot wasn’t any better.

How Utterly Disappointing
