Editorial reviews
When Janet Frame died in 2004 at the age of 79, the world lost an underappreciated novelist but gained Towards Another Summer, presented here as an audiobook performed by Heather Bolton in a no-frills New Zealand accent befitting the prose.
Written in 1963, the novel was not released during Frame’s lifetime most likely because she considered it too personal. The simple story follows one female writer to a country house to spend a weekend with a journalist and his wife. Frame spares the listener a country farce and treats the listener to a meditation on interiority, longing, and relation. This audiobook is recommended listening for a long, reflective journey.

Amazon reviewer D. Lagare wrote the perfect 4-star description and review if this book. I can't do better. Use the translation button below the review to see it in English. I agree with their idea that you need to be a little familiar with Frame's history (Wiki is good) to understand this novel.
I also appreciated the performance done I believe by a New Zealand actor. Perfect!
