The audiobook is a fantastic version of the story. I would argue it is the best way to experience the story. You will find yourself rooting for the main character throughout all the trials and periods of growth. The beauty and pain of remembering beginnings, endings, tragedies, and love are intertwined as surely as the water around their people. Remembering is painful and a lot to shoulder alone.
