THE WANDERING SEASON

Narrator Caroline Hewitt's approach to this audiobook is gentle but skilled. She provides a warm yet ultimately moving performance about a woman's journey, both geographical and emotional. Veronica is traveling in Europe, searching for insights into her ancestors. Her first stop, an Irish castle, includes an encounter with Niall, a fellow foodie and kindred spirit. Actual spirits that mysteriously appear to Veronica at night may provide clues to her history. As she travels to France and Italy, sampling the local fare, she considers her own crossroads. Should she give her ex-boyfriend back home another chance or pursue her own culinary dreams? Hewitt's voice is consistently light yet reflective, taking listeners on this journey. A fitting summer listen. S.P.C. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2025]
