A Lifetime of Impossible Days
by Tabitha Bird (Viking, 2019); audiobook read by Abbe Holmes (Wavesound, 2019)
A sad, beautiful book that weaves together childhood imagination, adult trauma and the wandering recollections of old age. Bird’s protagonist interacts with herself at three different stages of life, creating a believable life-in-flux at the juncture between speculative paradox and real-world therapy.
