Acerca de esta escucha

In a powerful and poignant novel, an artist unravels her mysterious family history and its generations of women who depended on each other to survive.

Tig Costello has arrived in Darren, Kentucky, commissioned to paint a portrait honoring her grandfather Benjamin. His contributions to the rural Appalachian town and his unimpeachable war service have made him a local hero. But to Tig, he’s a relative stranger. To find out more about him, Tig wants to talk to the person who knew her grandfather best: Eloise Price, the woman who murdered him fifty years ago.

Still confined to a state institution, Eloise has a lifetime of stories to tell. She agrees to share them all—about herself, about Tig’s enigmatic grandmother, and about the other brave and desperate women who passed through Benjamin’s orbit. Most revealing of all is the truth about Whitmore Halls, the mansion on the hill that was home to triage, rescue, death, and one inevitable day that changed Eloise’s life forever.

As Tig begins to piece together the puzzle of her mysterious family tree, it sends her spiraling toward a confrontation with her own painful past—and a reconciliation with all its heartrending secrets.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Rose-Marie gives us an almost tactile sense of this small Kentucky town, not much changed since Benjamin’s day, and of the claustrophobic atmosphere of living in a place where everyone knows everything, even the things they don’t talk about.”Historical Novels Review

“Original, fascinating, emotionally engaging, inherently fascinating, The Moonflowers is gothic historical fiction at its very best. Especially and unreservedly recommended.”—Midwest Book Review

The Moonflowers is a stunning debut novel fueled by troubling secrets and the strength and extraordinary courage of Appalachian women. Abigail Rose-Marie writes with emotional intensity, reminding us that much has changed in our world but the challenges that women face are still the same. A fascinating and necessary tale.”—Dinty W. Moore, author of Between Panic & Desire

Main Character's Name Mispronounced!

"Ant-uh-gone"? OMG. This is 7th grade Sophocles. It's "an-TIG-uh-nee" for crying out loud. Ridiculous! This was distracting every time it was pronounced.

Finally! A book with an ending that feels complete!

This book is beautifully written and this performance is lyric and soothing. Loved it: the stories within stories; the descriptions; the strong women themselves. Fabulous.

Oof.

This was hard to get through. The topics covered are very prevalent today. Be warned, this book will probably cause you discomfort.

The Moonflowers - compelling and relevant

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The characters were well developed and the storyline while especially relevant in today’s climate, was timeless. I found myself wanting to listen even if I only had a few moments. When done, I was mourning the loss of what felt like friends. I immediately looked to see other titles from this author only to find this is her one and only. Please write more @Abigail Rose-Marie!

timely story. narrator can't pronounce the main character's name and it is maddening

brilliant audio needs to edit their narrators. anti-gone is an unforgivable error. imagine if the narrator for harry potter pronounced it hermi-own.

the story was good, but honestly probably better without audio just because it's so dumb that someone paid to read an entire story didn't think to look up pronunciation for the main character.
