Gaining vision
Review from The Correspondent →
The unique flow of letters that created this novel was so effective. The small, tight story drew me in as the letters revealed a life and the unspoken need to connect.The author created a story that seemed to include the reader. I found myself caring about the characters and so curious as the story was..
I love the way the story was told! Sybil was just fabulous and it did make me cry. It was an excellent excellent read.
Just finished on audible and am sobbing. I feel I am mourning Sybil and will miss her dearly. Went through all the emotions. Phenomenal.
The character development was superb and the narrators for each complemented the storytelling. I hated to see the story end!
Beautiful, thoughtful sophisticated writing which never appears forced. It captures themes of which variations are widespread. The production company , based on my very extensive Audible experience, effected the best group of narrators possible. Their voices reflected so well the emotions of the narrative.

The narration for the Helen character was so badly overacted. She sounded in physical pain or on heavy drugs all the time (she’s not either).

The concept took a little getting used to, but the characters were so good (apart and together) that I quickly got over my skepticism and simply enjoyed the story for what it is. June and Mikey’s journey is endearing, touching, fun and thought-provoking! The narration work was excellent. I could feel what the characters were..
This book is a life changing book for me. It’s is about everything that counts in life It’s about that mistakes we make and impossibly beautiful way we can change. It’s about forgiveness and how it starts with ourselves.
