GAMES AND RITUALS Stories

Five narrators shape ordinary people and circumstances into an extraordinary listening experience. Rebecca Lowman, Cassandra Campbell, Kimberly Wetherell, Kate Rudd, and Jeremy Parker each narrate a few of these stories, tapping into their characters with insights that highlight the humor and pathos in everyday life. A co-worker falls for the new guy; a woman has to return home to care for an aging parent; a couple help an ex-wife move; a delayed flight forces an unlikely bond between strangers. Each story is relatable yet often spins something new into the mix. Such personal attention by the narrators evokes a sense of intimacy that leaves an imprint on the mind and the heart.
