Judge not (lest ye find yourself in a similarly unthinkable situation)
The first time I heard about Accidentally Brave, I was viscerally appalled. How could a person be okay with the knowledge that her supposedly upstanding husband and father to their three children had secretly downloaded child pornography? Then I actually dug into her memoir-slash-one-woman-play, in which she very deliberately notes that while she is most certainly not okay with her husband’s crime, she does find it necessary to tell her truth (spoiler: didn’t divorce him). Even without the utterly unputdownable pace and plot of this listen, what propels the narrative is the question: what if this happened to me? How would I react if the father of my two wonderful kids—to whom he’s heretofore only been a wonderful parent—was revealed to have a very, very dark side? Would I burn it all down? It’s these questions, paired with Maddie Corman’s urgent, honest storytelling, that will keep you glued to your earphones from the moment you hit "play."
