![]() This happened to me with Wallace Stegner's "Angle of Repose," a novel a close friend swore up and down that I really had to read, but a book I'd somehow become leery of. The ease of an audiobook can provide that extra bit of momentum, with glorious results. There's an impetus to read these titles, but not perhaps quite enough outright desire to make you pluck them from the middle of that never-diminishing to-be-read pile and really commit. The Listener is sponsored by Audible.Įvery reader's life is full of books he or she keeps meaning to get to and somehow never quite does: classics, new titles everyone's raving about, and the favorite novels of friends who can't understand why you haven't yet picked up the works that have changed their lives. ![]() ![]() ![]() Every Thursday, Laura Miller or another top critic will recommend a great new title. This is the debut of our new weekly audiobook column, The Listener. ![]()
