Ready by Kate Binchy.
For the first time on CD and unavailable in book form the second instalment of Maeve Binchy's collected short stories.
Stories about ordinary people going about ordinary lives will always be fascinating when told by a writer blessed with extraordinary talent, insight, and compassion.
Binchy makes us care about them all is a stunning new work that brings us the magic and spirit of Christmas in fifteen stories filled with the author's trademark wit, charm, and sheer storytelling genius. Instead of nostalgia, Binchy evokes contemporary life; instead of Christmas homilies, she offers truth; and instead of sugarplums, she brings us the nourishment of holidays that precipitate change, growth, and new beginnings.
The stories powerfully evoke many lives during the one holiday of the year when feelings cannot be easily hidden: step families grappling with exes; long married couples faced with in law problems; a wandering husband choosing between the other woman' and his wife; a child caught in the grown up tug of war.
The time of year may be magical, imbued with personal meaning, but the situations are universal, and Maeve Binchy makes us care about them all.
