A soulful journey into art, friendship, and love, with dream sequences and flashbacks, this novel is demanding for the listener as well as the narrator. Kate Reading tackles the shifting story and lyrical prose with a tenderness that brings the characters to life. Alternating between male and female voices, she captures the intricate history of a set of friends involved in the world of painting and writing. Further, she makes believable the ghost story elements in the many flashback scenes involving the various characters. The stories are all linked, and each one is given a distinctive voice through the modulating tones of ReadingÕs narration.
