Pamela Dillman’s spirited delivery makes it great fun to join the Wilder widows as they follow their dreams. Listeners will have the sense of eavesdropping on the women—solo and as a group. Each is delightful and distinctly drawn: kind, melodious Silvie; awestruck, naïve Doris; whiskey-voiced, sexy Alice; and regimented, ex-military Marge. When the widows decide they need more spark in their lives, each lists a secret wish and commits to helping the others achieve their desires. Dillman creates a believable atmosphere as they travel the world and discover dormant skills and talents. Most appealing is their good-natured joshing, as delivered by Dillman. Her skillful rendering of Katherine Hastings’s novel makes it as vibrant as a movie. S.G.B. 2023 Audies Finalist © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2022]
