AT LAST

Earphones Award Winner

by | Read by Mia Barron

Fiction • 8 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

In 1971 Omaha, Helene and Evelyn meet as their children marry. Mia Barron's detached voice sets the scene and then, almost magically, transforms into women full of personality. Barron takes us back to the '40s and '60s, which molded the women, and forward from the '80s to the 2015s. As the women continue their rivalries, competing for attention and love, Barron gives each her own snarky, judgmental voice. She gives Francie, the beloved granddaughter, a voice that matures as she grows from a child to a troubled teenager and to a contented middle-aged woman. Listeners hear how Evelyn's daughter, Ruth, is frustrated by her struggles to succeed, while Helene's son, Tom, is supportive. Silver shows how histories impact families' lives, relationships, and choices through generations. N.E.M.
