About this listen

One of 100 Best Books of 2017 (San Francisco Chronicle)

One of 2017's Best Fiction Books (Kirkus Reviews)

"Sharp observations about motherhood and womanhood.... Audacious, confident, smart, seductive." (The New York Times Book Review)

Pages for Her is the story of two women, Flannery and Anne, each at a personal turning point, and the circumstances that lead to their reunion. Twenty years after their brief but passionate affair, chronicled in Sylvia Brownrigg's earlier novel Pages for You, Flannery has the chance once again to meet Anne, who opened young Flannery up to the possibility of love - then left her heartbroken. Pages for Her is an exhilarating, passionate work that explores marriage, sexuality, and the transformative power of love over time.

it's a long time since I've felt so completely in tune with words on a page, so much so that I will now buy this book and its predecessor, so that I can see those words. I found myself wanting to see the words at the same time as listening to the narration, so beautiful did I find them. I kind of envy Sylvia Brownrigg the experience of writing them - she must have found it rewarding and cathartic. I was with the characters every moment of the way as the story unfolded towards the reunion, a really clever structure. Flannery's character was subtly and skillfully drawn, and I found myself caring for her, feeling her underlying need to be appreciated and allowed to flourish. Anne, though less loveable, is the only person in Flannery's life who can fulfill this need.
Abby Craden is a skilled performer who understands her text and sub text, so important in a narrator. I do wish she didn't use that hard edgy guttural sound she apparently thinks denotes a male speaker though. It just makes them all sound cocky and arrogant, and is so limited compared to her broad array of female voices, all well placed and expressive.
