About this listen
Brooklyn, 1947: In the midst of a blizzard, in a two-family brownstone, two babies are born minutes apart to two women. They are sisters by marriage, with an impenetrable bond forged before and during that dramatic night; but as the years progress, small cracks start to appear, and their once deep friendship begins to unravel. No one knows why, and no one can stop it.
One misguided choice; one moment of tragedy. Heartbreak wars with happiness and almost but not quite wins. From debut novelist Lynda Cohen Loigman comes The Two-Family House, a moving family saga filled with heart, emotion, longing, love, and mystery.

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.

Just enjoy.
The narrators brought this story to life. It was like watching a movie in my mind.

Listened to all of it, but it didn’t really grab my interest.
The book wasn’t bad, just predictable. I wouldn’t really waste a credit on it. I am typically drawn to stories mid century in NY, but this just didn’t hit the mark for me. Not like Brooklyn.

The difference between love and regret.
Very interesting to see the relationship between 2 sisters in law , their husbands, and children, and the difference that love for one another, or the lack of, makes in their lives.

Loved it!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Definitely! It was a great story about two families and a lot of secrets and lies.
What did you like best about this story?
How the two families were so close and how the lies tore them apart.
What about Barrie Kreinik’s performance did you like?
I loved the narrator's New York and Jewish accent! It made the book so authentic!
If you could take any character from The Two-Family House out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Natalie. I feel like she was young and fragile but so mature how she handled everything.
Any additional comments?
I just wanted to recommend this to everyone. It was a wonderful story.
