À propos de cet audio

Betty Smith, the beloved
author of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, weaves a riveting modern myth
out of the experiences of her own life in this rediscovered classic.

In Brooklyn's
unforgiving urban jungle, Maggie Moore is torn between answering her own needs
and catering to the desirous men who dominate her life. Confronted by her
quarrelsome Irish immigrant father, the feckless lover who may become her
husband, and others, Maggie must learn to navigate a cycle of loss, separation,
and hope as she forges her own path toward happiness.


With characteristic
warmth, compelling insight, and easy, conversational prose, Maggie-Now poignantly
illuminates one woman's struggles and successes as she grapples with timeless
questions of desire, duty, self-sacrifice, and the quest for fulfillment. Maggie-Now is
an unforgettable masterpiece from one of the twentieth century's greatest
talents.

Weird narration with odd pronunciation of words and bad accents. Not sure what happened with the voice but the story is lovely and you can see elements of Smiths later book A tree grows in Brooklyn
