Description
And so the National Story Project was born. Just over a year old, it's one of NPR's most popular features. The response has been so overwhelming, with more than 4,000 stories submitted so far, that Auster decided to cull the top works and make them available in a book, and now this audio. His selections, hilarious blunders, wrenching coincidences, brushes with death, miraculous encounters, improbable ironies, come from people of all ages and walks of life.
This one-of-a-kind collection is a testament to the power of storytelling that offers a glimpse into the American soul. By turns poignant, nostalgic, funny, and strange, it is an audiobook to be treasured and shared for years to come.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"His smoky baritone voice giving constancy to the wide-ranging tales, Auster paces his reading to let the stories surprise and move us.... Improbable, hilarious, miraculous: these stories are the stuff of life." (AudioFile)
"A moving collection of stories that realizes the audio format's best possibilities." (Publishers Weekly)
"A powerful book, one in which strangers share with you their darkest secrets, their happiest memories, their fears, their regrets. To read these essays is to look into hearts, to see life from other viewpoints, to live vicariously." (The Boston Globe)
