DEAR HENRY, LOVE EDITH

Narrator Cillian Crowe speaks earnestly when vocalizing the two main characters, Henry and Edith, in this charming rom-com. Listeners are easily integrated into their daily lives in a Midwestern town in the present day. Henry has lived there his entire life and is ready to settle down; Edith is a young widow who is seeking adventure. Much of the audiobook's charm is in its dialogue as Edith, Henry, and many of the townspeople seem to talk in circles, saying one thing but meaning something else. Crowe eloquently conveys both the intent and the frustration when any of the characters are misunderstood. The misunderstandings, miscommunications, and physical mishaps combine for a story full of mayhem and laughter. B.E.S. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2023]
