À propos de cet audio

The story of a man who had given up hope....and the village that gave it back to him.

When a young City trader, Joe, washes up on the sands of St Piran in Cornwall, warning of a deadly pandemic virus and a financial apocalypse, he is rescued by the villagers and given a home.

From the retired village doctor and the beachcomber, to the priest's wife and the flamboyant romantic novelist, they take this lost soul into their midst. The village, Joe tells them, must store up food, and isolate themselves to stay safe.

But are Joe's fears unfounded? Why has Joe fled the city for St Piran? And what of the whale that lurks in the bay?

Intimate, funny and heart-warming, Not Forgetting the Whale is a story about a community reacting to a deadly threat, about the best and worst in our nature - and the search for a place to call home.

There is nothing clichéd about Not Forgetting the Whale. Filled with intelligence and a cast of vibrant characters the story kept taking me places I didn't expect but loved. It never dragged.

David Thorpe is a master performer. I originally looked at this book BECAUSE he was the narrator.

It made me cry tears of joy

What I enjoyed most about this book was listening to it on audible rather than reading it. David Thorpe did an amazing job of narrating the story. The different voices he used for the characters made it much easier to keep track of them. And, there were a lot of characters to keep track of. In fact, his voices actually added to the characters. I got a better sense of what the characters were like by the way he interpreted their voices. The audible book was actually better than the written book.

I won't be forgetting "Not Forgetting the Whale"
