About this listen

What brought on the bad dream was, of all things, an old-time Buick. Sam Fogel wasn’t into vehicles, certainly not collectibles. The forty-two-year-old college professor leaned more toward chamber music and theater and poetry as diversions, not expensive, environment-wrecking technology. But over breakfast one spring Saturday, Janie looked up from the Meadow Hills Observer and pointed to an article, suggesting that he take the children to the fairgrounds to see the auto show. Sam had started to protest, but she added—in a tone he’d come to recognize—that it would be a good idea.

A good story and perhaps a fable where we are reminded to be true to our nature

I completely enjoyed this short story. Only an author like Deaver can put such richness in his stories to have the reader leave satisfied. I would recommend this for sure!

Nostalgia Runs Deep

This story was plodding and predictable early in the narrative despite attempt to shock reader. Little to redeem ending.

Not even worth small$$

Expertly written and wonderfully narrated, this was money and time well spent. I loved it

Great little story

Deaver writes in an approachable style and that adds a surprise element to this story's ending.

Solid.

Story started a bit slow and as the ending approached, I felt underwhelmed and didn't see much to recommend. Since Matt have seen something coming but I sure didn't. I should have expected a shock due to Deaver's other work but I was still left shocked at the very end and could see this being expanded.

Satisfying end to a short story

I had to listen to the last part 2x just to make sure I heard right. Definitely didn’t see that ending coming. Good read.

WOW!

The author wrote an enjoyable novel. The actor had a good voice. Yet the combination of both was still lacking “that-bit-of-drive” to capture my attention fully. You know, like a fantastic looking gourmet dish but when you tasted it, the ingredients wasn’t enough to make you rushed for another bite. Still, it’s good enough for you to finish the entire dish and not regret after the bill and some tips.

Almost…

Well, that was a surprise. Won't do a "spoiler." Chilling. A better Deaver than the 3 I just listened to...

Disturbing

Narrators voice was great and story had an interesting twist. I’d be interested in a sequel that got into more of the main characters backstory as ending didn’t mesh as well, for me, not getting to the “why”.

Unsure
