Show Notes
A talented ensemble performs Julia Franks's historical novel. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Kendra Winchester discuss this story of an unintended pregnancy in 1950s North Carolina. Edie Carrigan’s parents tell her she must keep her pregnancy a secret and send her to a house for unwed mothers where she’s expected to give the child up for adoption once she gives birth. Molly Secours beautifully captures Edie’s emotional devastation as she fights to keep her baby. Laura Horowitz, Rachel L. Jacobs, and Colin Martin brilliantly narrate the other viewpoint characters, who are each tied to Edie’s life in ways that are slowly revealed throughout the story.
