WHERE THE RIVERS MERGE

Earphones Award Winner

by | Read by Mary Alice Monroe, Jenna Lamia, Cassandra Campbell

Fiction • 12.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

Octogenarian Eliza Pickney is the matriarch of her vast homestead in the lush South Carolina Low Country, and her plan to preserve the family land in a conservancy disrupts her descendants' expectation of inheritance. The story unfolds in two timelines: Jenna Lamia charmingly narrates Eliza's stories from her early life, while Cassandra Campbell superbly portrays Eliza in her late 80s. Lamia's sweet, unsophisticated depiction of young Eliza is softly Southern. Campbell uses an elderly but far from feeble voice for Eliza and impressively provides differentiated timbres for two young women Eliza takes under her wing. The final section, beautifully delivered by the author, sheds light on the history behind the story. N.M.C.
