Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Meryl Streep delivers a powerhouse performance that perfectly matches the book's cutting edge. Her nuanced portrayal of Annie, the disillusioned wife, is both heartbreaking and hilarious. The pacing is brisk, making it feel like a movie from the get-go, with every pause for reflection feeling intentional rather than disruptive. While Streep’s delivery is exceptional, some might find certain plot twists overly predictable. Nevertheless, her reading ensures that Heartburn remains a delightfully witty listen, perfect for fans of Ephron and Streep alike.
