À propos de cet audio

An evocative and charming novel full of secrets and mystery, from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Lost Bookshop

In a quiet village in Ireland, a mysterious local myth is about to change everything…

One hundred years ago, Anna, a young farm girl, volunteers to help an intriguing American visitor translate fairy stories from Irish to English. But all is not as it seems and Anna soon finds herself at the heart of a mystery that threatens her very way of life.

In New York in the present day, Sarah Harper boards a plane bound for the West Coast of Ireland. But once there, she finds she has unearthed dark secrets – secrets that tread the line between the everyday and the otherworldly, the seen and the unseen.

With a taste for the magical in everyday life, Evie Woods's latest novel is full of ordinary characters with extraordinary tales to tell.

Editorial Review

Get a divorce, jump on a plane, and find out if faeries are real
I’m so glad I took the recommendation of a trusted colleague (thanks, Katie O.!) and gave The Story Collector by Evie Woods a chance. Woods is a new-to-me author and Heather O’Sullivan is a new-to-me narrator—and their collaboration has become the summer listen I didn’t know I needed. Blending the past and present, the US and Ireland, the ordinary and the not-so-ordinary—it’s a tale about everyday people that’s full of magic, faeries, love, hope, and the power of stories. You will want to jump on the next Aer Lingus plane you see—you’ll know it by the shamrock on its tail—in hopes of discovering your own magical reawakening. — Tricia F., Audible Editor

At first I wasn't sure I wanted to hear the story go back and forth between times and lives, but soon that uncertainty released and I was enthralled. I enjoyed the lilt of the Irish accent of the narrator. She added to the sweetness of the story. I highly enjoyed this book and hope others will give it a listen as well.

An enchanting read.

The narrator did not do this book justice. Difficult to piece together sentences at times. Frustrating to listen to.

Disappointing

I’ve heard that everything you read changes you. You learn something, or your perception is changed or whatever. This book will not change you. There is nothing of substance here.

Hallmark movie fodder
