Resumen del Editor
Esther, a painter living in Jamaica and recovering from the death of her husband, comes across a man on a mountain road with no memory of his past. As a hurricane rushes towards the island, she shelters the handsome stranger, names him “Monty”, and tries to uncover the mystery of his missing memory. She soon finds herself falling in love with a man she barely knows, and who doesn’t even know himself.
The Mountain and the Sea is a romantic tale about letting go of the past and embracing the present. Set on the lush Jamaican coast, the poetic prose brings to life the warmth of the sands, the spice in the foods, and the passion of a Caribbean love affair. This is a story for listeners who long for an escape to a faraway place, and for a journey inside the secrets of the human heart. It’s a story that explores the question: How can we leave the pain of our old relationships behind and give ourselves a new chance at love?
Kwame Dawes’ poetic prose is brought to life by the enticing and lyrical performance of Jamaican narrator Paula-Anne Jones.

Our favorite moments from The Mountain and the Sea
It’s never too late for a new beginning
In The Mountain and the Sea, esteemed Ghanaian poet Kwame Dawes lays bare a compelling and raw short story, told through the eyes of a middle-aged Jamaican woman named Esther, who for the past couple of years has been reckoning with the complicated relationship she had with her deceased husband. One day, as a hurricane approaches, she happens upon a naked man standing on a mountain road leading into Kingston. He has amnesia, so Esther decides to shelter him on her private island, where she’s able to reignite a passion for art with the unwitting help of her new friend-turned-muse. Jamaican narrator Paula-Anne Jones brings vibrancy and authenticity to a woman who learns to throw caution to the wind and open her mind and body. It’s a stirring listen with a strong sense of place that made me laugh, kept me in suspense, and soothed my soul.

Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Gabriel Ferrara is tall and handsome, and most days she wants to stab her eyes out with a pencil, anything to stop her seeing his perfection. How any female could work in these conditions and not be completely besotted with him is beyond her. Then he opens his mouth and she remembers why. He's bossy and sarcastic, with a wit so sharp it could cut glass. Every weekend is the same . . . while he's off living his dream life, she's counting down the days until Monday when she sees him again.

Historia
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Historia
Jane Bancroft has returned to Lovett, Tasmania after 20 years away, minus one ex-husband but plus one outraged teenage daughter. Life in the city – life in general – hasn’t quite panned out as she would have liked. With her mother unwell, now seems as good a time as any to come back to where it all began, and perhaps even start a new life here in the heart of Tasmanian apple country. But the legacy of Jane's wild apple youth has not been forgotten by small-town Lovett and her homecoming is haunted by past tragedy.

Maya loves to cook with her grandmother - her Halmunee - to connect with the rich family history associated with each dish, a history Maya's mom would prefer stayed in the past. While cooking with Halmunee, something remarkable happens - the food creates such a strong memory that Maya and Halmunee are transported back in time through the memory itself. Halmunee explains that the women in her family have the gift of time travel through food and Maya can do it too, if she practices.

A darkly funny short story about one woman’s reflections on the routes she’s taken through life and the detours she’s made along the way.

Each stop stirs up introspective thoughts on her marriage, the loss of her baby, and the lover who got away—contemplations that push her ever closer to wondering if she’s made the right decisions.

Historia
Every life reaches that crucial intersection, the place where you must choose your fate, or have it chosen for you. For best-selling author Rich Cohen (The Fish That Ate the Whale, The Last Pirate of New York), it came in a writing workshop senior year in college, when, at 17, he had to knuckle under to a ruthless professor or make a righteous, self-defeating stand.

Historia
The trouble is Sloane is smack dab next to me from nine to freaking five. And she's as captivating, brilliant, and sexy as ever, which means I'm taking more than the recommended dosage of office romance temptation every day. Make that every single second, because she's not only "the one" - she's the one who got away.

A treat for the ears
The performance is what made this story so enjoyable to hear. Her Jamaican voice has a lilting cadence and brings warmth to the listener’s ears.

No 2nd Chance For Love
This was very good, fun and enjoyable read. I did not want it to end...especially the way that it did! The narration was clear and articulate. I enjoyed hearing the book in another native tongue, accents and all! I was hoping she had found love, real love a 2nd time around! Thanks

loving this book!
I'm only at the halfway mark, but didn't want to wait for review. While I am enjoying the story line, I am entranced ay the preformer .. a woman with Jamaican accent for story based in Jamaica. I especially like her expressions and that you can hear laughter in her voice in the appropriate moments. I think I wouldn't enjoy stouy as much if it were the voice in my head! Will be looking for other books she had narrated! I highly recommend this, but don't listen with young ears around. Use headset or wait until the youngans are asleep ;)

Nice change
I'm a true crime fan, but thought I would try this book. The Jamaican accent & storyline, in addition to the fact that I hadn't heard or read a love story in 20 years or more-persuaded me to choose this. it was enjoyable....
