THE FIRST DAY

Earphones Award Winner

by | Read by Gerard Doyle

Fiction • 6.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2017

Gerard Doyle dons his finest Belfast accent in narrating this intense and tangled story of an affair between a married evangelical pastor and his independent-minded lover, a graduate student. When she bears him a son, their two families' destinies are forever altered. The prose is poetic and wise, and Doyle's clear and easy delivery ensures that every phrase, every paragraph, every Biblical quote has the sound and weight of an epiphany. As the story unfolds, the lives of two half-brothers collide 35 years later. Debut author Phil Harrison's novel of exceptional power and grace is read by an exceptional voice. B.P.
