And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer by Fredrik Backman
4.0
If you're in need of a short story that packs an emotional punch - this is it.
A hauntingly beautiful and sad audio about a man with dementia who is dying. His conversations with his grandson, son, and late wife offer a look into not only their perspective - but what he may be feeling and experiencing as well.
There's definitely a commentary on familial relationships - good and difficult - as well.
Narraton:
I think this packed a bigger emotional punch because I listened to it. David Morse's narration was beautiful. He brings grandpa, Ted, & Noah to life.
Note:
While wonderful - I feel this is overpriced. $5.99 for a short story that is only 80% of the ebook length (same cost for an hour long audio) is disappointing. I'm definitely glad I borrowed it from the library.
