Aimee Crocker was a real person, born into a wealthy, conventional family in 1864. Narrator Suzanne Toren's interpretation of Aimee's development from naïve teenager to a beautiful intellectual and sexual gourmand well into her 50s is phenomenal. Toren's fine performance will give listeners an understanding of this mysterious woman whom no one understood in her time. Women didn't travel alone; Aimee did. Women weren't expected to enjoy sex; Aimee did. Women didn't get divorces; Aimee did--five of them. She was called a bohemian, a mystic, and lots of other things, but she remained an enigma. Toren's intuitive presentation shows Aimee's fragility and steel. She was afraid of her bad dreams, but she never stopped planning her adventures, which always made her feel alive. E.E.S.
