About this listen
A GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK • #1 LibraryReads Pick • Indie Next Pick
A spellbinding novel about sisters separated by centuries, but bound together by the sea, from the author of the runaway New York Times bestseller Weyward.
“Narrator Barrie Kreinik offers a first-rate performance, embodying the characters with distinctive voices and delivering Hart’s prose with graceful lyricism.”—Library Journal (starred review)
"The Sirens teems with family secrets, eerie dreams, and deep transformation. A compelling tale of sisterhood, sacrifice, and the sea, this is a beautiful follow-up to Hart's sensational debut, Weyward. The Sirens will sweep you away."—Sarah Penner, New York Times bestselling author of The Lost Apothecary
2019: Lucy awakens from a dream to find her hands around her ex-lover’s throat. Horrified, she flees to her older sister’s house on the Australian coast, hoping she can help explain the strangely vivid nightmare that preceded the attack—but Jess is nowhere to be found.
As Lucy awaits her return, the rumors surrounding Jess’s strange small town start to emerge. Numerous men have gone missing at sea, spread over decades. A tiny baby was found hidden in a cave. And sailors tell of hearing women’s voices on the waves. Desperate for answers, Lucy finds and begins to read her sister’s adolescent diary.
1999: Jess is a lonely sixteen-year-old in a rural town in the middle of the continent. Diagnosed with a rare allergy to water, she has always felt different, until her young, charming art teacher takes an interest in her drawings, seeing a power and maturity in them—and in her—that no one else has.
1800: Twin sisters Mary and Eliza have been torn from their loving father in Ireland and forced onto a convict ship bound for Australia. For their entire lives, they’ve feared the ocean, as their mother tragically drowned when they were just girls. Yet as the boat bears them further and further from all they know, they begin to notice changes in their bodies that they can’t explain, and they feel the sea beginning to call to them…
A breathtaking tale of female resilience and the bonds of sisterhood across time and space, The Sirens captures the power of dreams, and the mystery and magic of the sea.
This program includes a bonus conversation with the author.

Xishi’s beauty is seen as a blessing to the villagers of Yue—convinced that the best fate for a girl is to marry well and support her family. When Xishi draws the attention of the famous young military advisor, Fanli, he presents her with a rare opportunity: to use her beauty as a weapon. One that could topple the rival neighboring kingdom of Wu, improve the lives of her people, and avenge her sister’s murder. All she has to do is infiltrate the enemy palace as a spy, seduce their immoral king, and weaken them from within.

Critic reviews
"The Sirens entices us with the combination of mesmerising beauty mixed with mortal danger. Hart skillfully entwines mystical aspects into what could be construed as part-fairytale, but its multiple timeframes and historical settings are firmly grounded."—Historical Novel Society
"Hart’s second novel (after Weyward) weaves a lyrical story, intricately blending family dynamics with the magic of folklore. For fans of family relationship stories with elements of magical realism, such as the novels of Sarah Addison Allen."—Library Journal
"Full of allure and brimming with undercurrents of buried secrets... The Sirens is beautifully written and utterly compelling."—Evie Woods, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Lost Bookshop

Bo knows she should go. Years of rain have drowned the city and almost everyone else has fled. Her mother was carried away in a storm surge and ever since, Bo has been alone. She is stalled: an artist unable to make art, a daughter unable to give up the hope that her mother may still be alive.

Suddenly, Bo has a reason to stay.

Story
Anna first fell in love with London at her hometown library—its Jane Austen balls a far cry from her life of food stamps and hand-me-downs. But when she finally arrives after college, the real London is a moldy flat and the same paycheck-to-paycheck grind—that fairy-tale life still out of reach. Then Anna meets the Wilders, who fly her to Saint-Tropez to tutor their teenage daughter. Swept up by the sphinx-like elder sister, Anna soon finds herself plunged into a heady whirlpool of parties and excess, a place where confidence is a birthright.

Story
Miranda’s parents live in a dilapidated house in rural France that they share with two llamas, eight ducks, five chickens, two cats, and a freezer full of food dating back to 1983. This wry, propulsive story about a singularly eccentric family and the sibling rivalry, generational divides, and long-buried secrets that shape them, is a glorious debut novel from a seasoned playwright with immense empathy and a flair for dialogue.

The flow
I enjoyed the ebb and flow of the story - between past and present and the tying together of the two worlds.

Not Excepting That!
It is a slow burn novel. I honestly wasn’t expecting certain twists that happened! I finished this book in 24 hours and I loved it! I haven’t read a book like this before with the time jumping but I feel as if the time jumping flowed well. Definitely give this one a read and just remember it’s a slow burn :)

A thoroughly enjoyable read
Oooh! Such a different book. Supernatural/magical realism is not my typical genre, but this was really good. Like with Weyward, this was a tale about family, friendship, and love. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommend.

Wonderful and well written story!
I love Emilia Hart's writing style! sShe has such a unique voice. I love the way she highlights the struggles and injustices toward women, while preserving the humanity of mankind. She does a fabulous job of weaving in hope, the strength of woman, feminine rage, and magic into each of her stories. This book, like Weyward, tells the story of women in 2 different timelines and the shows the connections and the power of influence that women have over each other and the future generations.

A stunningly surreal world
I’ve been waiting for this book to come out since the moment I heard about it. I was first mesmerized by Weyward, and now, the Sirens. The author has once again created a stunning, visual world that translates through the words. Spanning hundreds of years yet remaining applicable today.

Nothing Like Weyward
This story seemed disjointed, and the ending made certain characters' behavior (and the explanation for the whole story) seem more sleazy than magical. The narrator was very good, but you could play a drinking game with the number of times she had to read the word "body." I loved Weyward, but I was not a fan of The Sirens.

Unique story with a touch of historical fiction
I listened to this in one day, it was wonderfully atmospheric. You can vividly imagine cliff house and all the small fishing town mystery vibes. It has the ingredients of a folk tale that has been passed down. I did feel like there were a few gaps in the story where it glossed over things, and some minor repetitiveness. Overall I enjoyed this book! Would recommend to others.
