THE HOUSE AT THE END OF HOPE STREET

There's a house at the end of Hope Street, a haven for women in crises. You won't find it unless you need it, but when you do, you're invited to stay for 99 nights, during which the house nurtures you and guides you on a journey of healing and self-discovery. Elizabeth Sastre gives an eloquent delivery of this magical story. When Alba stumbles onto the house on the eve of the worst day in her life, she's pulled into its enchantment. Previous visitors, like Florence Nightingale and George Eliot, speak through their portraits to share their wisdom with residents. Sastre's serious tone and concise enunciation bring a sense of realism to the magic. N.E.M. © AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2013]
