Publisher's summary

If you don’t confront your past…it might confront you first.

Dr. Gregory Weber appears to have an enviable life. He's a renowned clinical psychologist residing in an elegant home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with his wife, Liv, and their two kids. But Gregory feels increasingly disconnected. His marriage is strained, his children are distant, and he can’t stop fixating on an unforgivable mistake he made when he was seventeen. Something no one else knows about.

So when an unscheduled client named Mira starts to appear in his office each week with knowledge about his past, Gregory quickly grows obsessed with her. Is she a new patient? A secret referral from a colleague? Someone connected to his teenage transgression?

As his attraction for Mira grows more intense with each session, so does her probing scrutiny of him. Soon Gregory’s professional boundaries begin to dissolve, and he becomes the patient, desperate to uncover his connection to this mysterious woman and find out what she wants from him.

In searching for the answers, Gregory risks losing everything that matters: his career, his family, and his mind.

A Masterpiece

Author Sandra A. Miller has created a cast of characters who portray the drama which can arise and the despair that can happen when we suppress our darkest fears. The story draws the reader in and rewards with inspiration to live life passionately and move boldly forward with an open heart. Narrator Steven Jay Cohen maintains a consistent, calm and intriguing voice while channeling the characters’ emotions just enough to create a textured dynamic. The narrative of “Wednesday at One” is intricately constructed and so compelling that I listened to the whole book in one sitting. A wonderful audiobook!

Excellent Story and Narration


This beautifully written and carefully constructed novel asks what is truth; to whom, including ourselves and even dead people, are we required to speak it; and what happens when we don’t take these questions seriously? 

The questions are considered dramatically through the effects on the protagonist Gregory’s relationships not of non-disclosure, so much, although there’s plenty of that, but of not taking the question of disclosure seriously until it’s possibly too late.  

Do not be put off by my philosophical analysis of the book: there is plenty here to keep fan of romantic or family drama engaged.

I have a feeling that the author intended Gregory's relationships with his wife Liv and Mira, the woman who visits his therapy office every Wednesday at one, to be central to what the book's narrative.

But I found Gregory's sister, Maggie, and daughter, Carrie, more sensitively drawn and the relationships with them more nuanced and illustrative of the book's themes.  
The reader of the Audible production brings warmth and empathy to Gregory’s inner life and tormented longing for connection.  This could be a beach read, but it is also more than that.  

I look forward to seeing the movie!

Disappointed

Was looking forward to this book but it just didn’t have it. Couldn’t tell if it was the story itself or the reader of the audio version.
