Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Eliza Foss’s nuanced narration is both soothing and evocative, perfectly complementing Sue Monk Kidd's eloquent prose. The story of Jessie Sullivan, a woman grappling with identity and purpose after decades of conformity, unfolds at an engaging pace that keeps listeners captivated. However, some parts feel overly reflective, which might slow the narrative momentum. Despite this minor critique, 'The Mermaid Chair' is a must-listen for fans of introspective contemporary fiction. Foss’s performance elevates the text and offers a memorable audio experience.
