Terrific!


(5 Sterne)

This is a beautiful, hauntingly poignant story of a young woman's believe in, yet fear of, Destiny. Thank You, as always to this LibriVox Volunteer, with the perfect voice for this little tale.

Worth It

The Angels Walk review & the description sum this story up perfectly. An interesting character study read beautifully.

Enigmatic, if not Romantic


(3 Sterne)

The author rarely gives characters a name, rather she describes them as, "The youngish lady" & "The Electrician". Her stories are filled with fragile looking young women who possess inner strength and find themselves in extraordinary situations. A bit trite for my taste. LibriVox Volunteer's voice is perfectly suited for this genre.

Perfect story, Perfect reader

That’s it- an unusual story I’ve now read 3 times. It’s interesting and beautiful. But indescribable so you have to read it yourself.
