À propos de cet audio
The national best seller
One of Entertainment Weekly's and SheReads' books to read after The Handmaid's Tale
"[An] electrifying debut.” (O, The Oprah Magazine)
“The real-life parallels will make you shiver.” (Cosmopolitan)
Set in a United States in which half the population has been silenced, Vox is the harrowing, unforgettable story of what one woman will do to protect herself and her daughter.
On the day the government decrees that women are no longer allowed more than 100 words per day, Dr. Jean McClellan is in denial. This can't happen here. Not in America. Not to her.
Soon women are not permitted to hold jobs. Girls are not taught to read or write. Females no longer have a voice. Before, the average person spoke 16,000 words a day, but now women have only 100 to make themselves heard.
For herself, her daughter, and every woman silenced, Jean will reclaim her voice.
This is just the beginning...not the end.
One of Good Morning America's “Best Books to Bring to the Beach This Summer”
One of PopSugar, Refinery29, Entertainment Weekly, Bustle, Real Simple, i09, and Amazon's Best Books to Read in August 2018.

"Narrator Julia Whelan brings this realistic, thought-provoking debut to life with heart.... A frighteningly believable story that ends with hope." (AudioFile)

WOW!WOW!WOW!
I tell everyone about this audiobook. The narrator has all the emotion and power of the words. It speaks to crisis, female empowerment and supporting one another. I’m so upset it’s over but even the ending was amazing.

Interesting story
Yes, like many people have pointed out, it is a little like 'the handmaids tale'. The story is still worth a listen. And Julia Whelan is a fantastic narrator, as usual!

Great story - excellent narrator
This was an enjoyable listen. Great story, Very interesting and easy to follow. The narrator was really talented and entertaining. I was hoping they would have narrated Dalcher’s next novel as well - but sadly they did not!

Handmaids Tale Lite
It’s actually not like Handmaids Tale at all. No one can touch Margaret Atwood’s brilliance.
It was still a decent dystopian novel where women are robbed of all their rights and made slaves to men.
I liked the concept of 100 word a day limit that the women have to adhere to. It was an interesting take on an age old theme.
The more things change the more they stay the same.
It gets a little hairy at the end. It was a fun summer read.

Vox Mesmerizes
Started this yesterday, once I got past the beginning chapters, could not stop. Finished it today. A real page-turner, righht until the end.
Julia Whelan was the perfect narrator. Every character's voice was right on the money.
I'll be thinking about this story for some time, until I am ready to listen to it again.
In the mean time, let me see what other novels this author has out there...
Highly recommend Vox. It's futuristic yet, after experiencing a world pandemic, could take even place in the present or very near future!

A Gripping Novel!
I would recommend this novel to anyone. It’s very thought provoking. While on one hand you think it could never really happen, you look around at the chaos in the world and you can suddenly see how a movement such as this could start. People are always looking for calm and you see how when your so busy with your own things you could miss something that could change your way of life. I have listened to quite a few books narrated by Julia Whelan and she always delivers a really good performance.

Great beginning sour ending
An absolute great begging to the book with an interesting plot and a great setting . I felt as if the end was somewhat rushed and felt as if the ending was to simplified for such a complex storyline.

Excellent narration
The narrator really brought the story to life through her different voices and accents. I definitely enjoyed it more as an audiobook than I would have I read the paperback.

So good! I couldn't stop listening!
Well written, amplified by an animated voice. I finished it in 2 days, it was supposed to be for a road trip... oops!
