About this listen
“I read Virginia’s novel in one sitting and was so captured by it I knew I had to make it and play Mrs. March. As a character, she is fascinating, complex, and deeply human and I can’t wait to sink my teeth into her.” (Elisabeth Moss)
Library Journal • "Books and Authors to Know: Titles to Watch 2021"
A 21st-century Highsmith, Virginia Feito conjures the unforgettable Mrs. March, an Upper East Side housewife whose life is shattered by her husband’s latest novel.
In this astonishing debut, the venerable but gossipy New York literary scene is twisted into a claustrophobic fun house of paranoia, horror, and wickedly dark humor. George March’s latest novel is a smash. No one is prouder than Mrs. March, his doting wife. But one morning, the shopkeeper of her favorite patisserie suggests that his protagonist is based on Mrs. March herself: “'But... - isn't she...’ Mrs. March leaned in and in almost a whisper said, ‘a whore?'” Clutching her ostrich-leather pocketbook, she flees, that one casual remark destroying her belief that she knew everything about her husband - as well as herself. Suddenly, Mrs. March is hurled into a harrowing journey that builds to near psychosis, one that begins merely within the pages of a book but may uncover both a killer and the long-buried secrets of her past.

Story
Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.

Jess needs a fresh start. She’s broke and alone, and she’s just left her job under less than ideal circumstances. Her half-brother Ben didn’t sound thrilled when she asked if she could crash with him for a bit, but he didn’t say no, and surely everything will look better from Paris. Only when she shows up – to find a very nice apartment, could Ben really have afforded this? – he’s not there.

After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.

This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

Story
In late 2003, in his column in Entertainment Weekly, Stephen King called The Memory of Running "the best novel you won't read this year." This glowing endorsement of the audiobook resulted in Ron McLarty receiving a $2 million two-book deal from Viking Penguin. Also, Warner Brothers has shelled out big bucks for the movie rights to The Memory of Running, for which McLarty will write the script.

Mrs. March needs Seroquel.
Looking forward to seeing the film adaptation with Elisabeth Moss. I feel that in this case, the film will be better than the book.

Blunt, inexplicable, abrupt ending.
Stylish and immersive, a literary psychological study of disintegration. Compelling pacing, though slow, it eventually fades, the plot unsustainable and with nary a likable character.

Makes the Reader Work Too Hard
A main element of any good mystery is the location to lay the foundation for the overarching, spine-tingling atmosphere that makes the reader feel something and draws them into the story. In this story, the location seemed to be inside the head of Mrs. March. The main character did a lot of running around in circles of neurosis, reacting to illusionary thoughts that never proved real. No threat ever panned out until the climactic moment, and soon I found myself bored and irritated by the ongoing fakes.
I had to work too hard to ride along with the story. I kept waiting for something to actually happen, and then when it did in the climax, I wasn't exactly sure why it did. Writers are taught to "show and not tell." In this book, I feel the author could have provided a little more "telling" to help stitch together what she was "showing" in the scenarios. Connect them better to help lead the reader/listener along.
The narrator did a great job. The different voices and inflections gave the impression of different characters speaking. Varied cadence and intensity helped capture the mood of the moment. But a good narrator can't save a struggling story.
Overall, I think there is a great story in there. I just don't want to work so hard to figure it out.

The author describes everything beautifully. But it wasn't enough for me. The story felt like it was mocking someone with a mental illness and I did not like it.

Well articulated and yet repetitive
The writer is talented and her use of words and flow of sentences in this story does capture what it’s like in the mind of one who becomes increasingly paranoid.
The problem is, after a while, her worrisome thoughts become quite repetitive and you really get enough of this unlikeable main character early. I did ... about a third of the way into the story. I took a break and then continued on and finally had to finally quit about half way through the book.
The writer has good potential. She needs to try again though. I do not recommend this read.

Kind of a dread
I wish the pace of the last few chapters were throughout. The whole thing was so obvious and sad; which was the point but it wasn’t enough. Perhaps this will be be one of the ones where the movie is better. But, to the authors credit, it’s written beautifully. The Woman speaking the Book did a great job too.

Weird For Sure
This bok can't figure out if it wants to be a thriller or a smut book. It's just so odd. If it hadn't been for the narrator I would have stopped after the first couple of chapters. Had I been reading it... it would most definitely have ended up in a donation box.
