À propos de cet audio

 When a mysterious man arrives in London, fate takes an unexpected turn as he suffers a freak accident on the underground train, leaving him with no memory of his past. Feeling a sense of responsibility, the compassionate Sally Nightingale invites him to stay with her and her mother. However, in a twist of destiny, it is revealed that her mother is the mans estranged ex-wife, whom he left two decades ago under complicated circumstances. As old feelings resurface, the question looms what will happen when his memories come flooding back? This melodramatic tale is infused with a delightful dose of humor, an array of colorful characters, and a generous sprinkle of romance. De Morgan, renowned as a designer and a pioneer of the arts and crafts movement, was also a gifted writer. His novels, rich in detail and vibrant imagery, offer a glimpse into an England on the brink of transformation with the onset of the First World War. With a narrative style reminiscent of Thackeray and Dickens, De Morgan’s work, especially in Somehow Good, showcases his unique voice, sharp wit, and a deeply sentimental heart.
