À propos de cet audio
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK • READ BY MERYL STREEP
In this beautiful and moving novel about family, love, and growing up, Ann Patchett once again proves herself one of America’s finest writers.
“Patchett leads us to a truth that feels like life rather than literature.” —The Guardian
In the spring of 2020, Lara’s three daughters return to the family's orchard in Northern Michigan. While picking cherries, they beg their mother to tell them the story of Peter Duke, a famous actor with whom she shared both a stage and a romance years before at a theater company called Tom Lake. As Lara recalls the past, her daughters examine their own lives and relationship with their mother, and are forced to reconsider the world and everything they thought they knew.
Tom Lake is a meditation on youthful love, married love, and the lives parents have led before their children were born. Both hopeful and elegiac, it explores what it means to be happy even when the world is falling apart. As in all of her novels, Ann Patchett combines compelling narrative artistry with piercing insights into family dynamics. The result is a rich and luminous story, told with profound intelligence and emotional subtlety, that demonstrates once again why she is one of the most revered and acclaimed literary talents working today.

At the end of the Second World War, Cyril Conroy combines luck and a single canny investment to begin an enormous real estate empire, propelling his family from poverty to enormous wealth. His first order of business is to buy the Dutch House, a lavish estate in the suburbs outside of Philadelphia. Meant as a surprise for his wife, the house sets in motion the undoing of everyone he loves. The story is told by Cyril’s son Danny, as he and his older sister, the brilliantly acerbic and self-assured Maeve, are exiled from the house where they grew up by their stepmother.

She has been nominated for a Grammy 46 times, and with Yentl she became the first woman to write, produce, direct, and star in a major motion picture. In My Name Is Barbra, she tells her own story about her life and extraordinary career.

Is it possible to write a sidesplitting novel about the breakup of the perfect marriage? If the writer is Nora Ephron, the answer is a resounding yes. For in this inspired confection of adultery, revenge, group therapy, and pot roast, the creator of Sleepless in Seattle reminds us that comedy depends on anguish as surely as a proper gravy depends on flour and butter.

After a wild bet, gourmet grilled-cheese sandwich, and cuddle with a baby goat, Alexis Montgomery has had her world turned upside down. The cause: Daniel Grant, a ridiculously hot carpenter who’s ten years younger than her and as casual as they come—the complete opposite of sophisticated city-girl Alexis. And yet their chemistry is undeniable.

Texas, 1921. A time of abundance. The Great War is over, the bounty of the land is plentiful, and America is on the brink of a new and optimistic era. But for Elsa Wolcott, deemed too old to marry in a time when marriage is a woman’s only option, the future seems bleak. Until the night she meets Rafe Martinelli. By 1934, the world has changed; millions are out of work and drought has devastated the Great Plains. Elsa must make an agonizing choice: fight for the land she loves or leave it behind and go west, to California, in search of a better life for her family.

Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.

This book is beautifully narrated and is refreshingly ordinary. Ann Patchett is a gifted writer.She has the capacity to insert bits of life in a startling manner. Much is unpredictable. What a change from the endless books of middle-aged angst .

Lovely
A lovely story of the beauty of life and love - the paths we chose - and the ones that are chosen for us. Meryl’s tender voice lends so much to a well written story. The writing is succinct and clear painting the scenes in your mind so vividly.
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time with Lara and her family. Beautiful.

The narration by Meryl Streep was wonderful
A beautiful story of family and of all the complicated histories we bring. I fell in love with the characters and all their flaws. I feel it would have been an excellent read on it’s own but having the brilliant Meryl Streep bring the people and places so beautifully to life made the audio experience truly memorable. I may even listen again!!

makes me want to throw out all of my other books
I have listened to a lot of audio books in my lifetime, but this is the first time I've felt as if the narrator was telling me her own story. I suppose I should have expected no less from Meryl.
The story was beautiful. The narration was beautiful. The cover is beautiful.
I report no faults with this in it's entirety.

Histoire touchante et Meryl Streep parfaite !
Je me suis laissée transporter par cette magnifique histoire. La lecture de Meryl Streep est vraiment parfaite. J’ai écouté beaucoup de livre audio et c’est le premier qui m’émeut au point des larmes … autant par l’histoire que la voix. Je recommande ce titre sans hésiter.

Favourite Read in a Long Time
Wow. What an exceptional audiobook. I truly am sad that I’ve now finished it, I enjoyed this book so thoroughly. Meryl Streep reads beautifully, I felt as though I was swept away into Lara’s story and world so completely. Can’t recommend this enough!
