Rescued from a pandemic’s wreckage and raised by the eccentric surgeon Dr. Horace Croft, orphan Nora Beady cares little for Victorian conventions. While other young ladies busy themselves with needlework and watercolors, Nora perfects her sutures and anatomical illustrations. Women face dire consequences if caught practicing medicine, but in Croft’s private clinic, Nora is his most trusted - and secret - assistant. That is, until the new surgical resident, Dr. Daniel Gibson, arrives.

Two women. Many aliases. Meg Williams. Maggie Littleton. Melody Wilde. Different names for the same person, depending on the town, depending on the job. She's a con artist who erases herself to become whoever you need her to be—a college student. A life coach. A real estate agent. Nothing about her is real. She slides alongside you and tells you exactly what you need to hear, and by the time she's done, you've likely lost everything.

Description
Oprah’s Book Club 2018 Selection
Newlyweds Celestial and Roy are the embodiment of both the American Dream and the New South. He is a young executive, and she is an artist on the brink of an exciting career. But as they settle into the routine of their life together, they are ripped apart by circumstances neither could have imagined. Roy is arrested and sentenced to 12 years for a crime Celestial knows he didn't commit.
Though fiercely independent, Celestial finds herself bereft and unmoored, taking comfort in Andre, her childhood friend, and best man at their wedding. As Roy's time in prison passes, she is unable to hold on to the love that has been her center. After five years, Roy's conviction is suddenly overturned, and he returns to Atlanta ready to resume their life together.
This stirring love story is a profoundly insightful look into the hearts and minds of three people who are at once bound and separated by forces beyond their control. An American Marriage is a masterpiece of storytelling, an intimate look deep into the souls of people who must reckon with the past while moving forward - with hope and pain - into the future.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"Narrators Eisa Davis and Sean Crisden skillfully portray Celestial and Roy.... In Part One, the narrators read the couple's letters so intimately that the listener may feel like an intruder.... As every wedding vow is tested, the narrators breathe intensity into Jones's riveting prose." (AudioFile)

Not what I expected
I enjoyed this book, but it was not what I expected. It was an engaging narrative, but I found the characters a little flat. The narrator for Audible version was good. #Audible1

Excellent book, confusing narration
Like others have said, this is a beautifully written story. You will change your opinion on each character 10 times before you reach the end. Loving, desperate, hopeful and sad, this book does all the things. That being said, the male narration of the female characters voice is confusing. As indicated by others, it is pitchy, whining, and a far departure from the powerful voice of the female narrator. If you can get beyond that I would highly recommend.

#Audible1 - An American Marriage
A heartfelt story of what it is like to be black in the US. The characters have depth & are relatable. I also enjoyed the readers they were excellent & they make a huge difference to the enjoyment of this book. I give it a #Audible1 high rating.

Definitely a sad story about losing freedom, marital hardships, grief, loss and betrayal of friendships.
I am not sure the happy ever after ending was possible.

Wonderful book!
Loved this title but the only criticism I have is when the male narrator imitates the female voice. Voice is a powerful conveyor of character and when the male narrator performs the voice for Celestial one gets the impression of a meek and whinny woman; a contradiction to when the female narrator performs chapters as Celestial.

Great story!
I enjoyed listening to this book, it was well written and the readers did a great job with the voices. I’m definitely going to recommend this to my friends and family, I’m even thinking about buying the hard copy to reread it in the future :)
