Listening to the audiobook of a book read long ago is enriching. Narration casts characters in a new lush light. I must listen to all Penelope's books to discover a beloved author anew.

pick'The Old Boys' was William Trevor's debut novel, published way back in 1964. Wow. Short, pungent, sad, hilarious. Trigger warning: cat lovers be warned. A cat meets a gruesome end in this book. You may be shocked. You may be delighted. I confess: I laughed. Superb one-sitting book!
pickMy Indian Summer continues... This is a profound exploration of Indian entrepreneurship as seen through the eyes of a limo driver. Timely too considering the widening gap between the haves and have-nots.
