À propos de cet audio

Welcome to Purgatory. Chuck Palahniuk style.

After a botched Halloween ritual, Madison Spencer, the snarkiest dead girl in the universe, finds herself trapped in Purgatory, otherwise known as Earth. The upside: She is no longer subject to physical limitations (she can pass through doors and walls). The downside: Well, she’s still dead.

Her first stop is her parents’ luxurious apartment, where she runs into her grandmother’s ghost. For Madison, the encounter triggers memories of the awful summer she spent upstate. As she revisits the painful truth of what transpired over those months, her saga of eternal damnation takes on a new and sinister meaning. And as it turns out, Madison and her parents have always been key elements of Satan’s master plan — Doomsday.

Gentle Reader: The story itself is genius. The audio performance is award-worthy. Cannot recommend enough.

Wow. Where to begin? While I consider audio books to be a necessary evil, these days, I cannot say enough good things about this one.

The narrator (one Sophie Amoss, whose work I will now be actively searching out) combines the ability to create distinctive voices (without becoming parodic), and presenting difficult subject matter, all while employing a tone and tempo that make listening a joy (and a fully engaging experience).

Palahniuk's work usually contains...challenging imagery, but this book is a revelation. I am grateful that I hadn't read the book first, as this easily tops my list of his creations. Despite the ridiculous subject matter, it is elevated to art-level not only by the structure and pace but also by the insight and development that he brings to these various characters.

If you want to be fully engaged in an audio event that needs to be heard to be fully appreciated, then download this treasure. Immediately.
