Story
Macbeth: A Novel brings the intricacy and grit of the historical thriller to Shakespeare’s tale of political intrigue, treachery, and murder. In this full-length novel written exclusively for audio, authors A. J. Hartley and David Hewson rethink literature’s most infamous married couple, grounding them in a medieval Scotland whose military and political upheavals are as stark and dramatic as the landscape in which they are played.

Story
Dolly Jamieson is not homeless, she's merely between permanent abodes. The 78-year-old spends her days keeping warm at the local library, where she enjoys sparring with the officious head librarian and helping herself to the free morning tea. It's not so bad, really. But it's certainly a far cry from the 1960s, when this humble girl from Geelong became an international star of the stage. As the acclaimed lead in the Broadway production of The Rose of France, all Dolly's dreams had come true. So how, in her old age, did she end up here?

Birdy thought she would have to wait until she was free again to see Rose, but now Rose has been convicted of a shocking crime and she and Birdy will be together. Birdy has been saving all her anger for Rose. It is Rose who should have protected her and kept her safe. Birdy was little but Rose was big, and she knows Rose could have saved her. This is a story about monsters who hide in plain sight and about the secrets we keep from ourselves. It is about children who are betrayed and adults who fail them.

Outstanding narration that set the tone for a magnificent book

Publisher's Summary
One hundred days. It’s no time at all, she tells me. But she’s not the one waiting.
In a heady whirlwind of independence, lust and defiance, 16-year-old Karuna falls pregnant. Not on purpose, but not entirely by accident, either. Incensed, Karuna’s mother, already over-protective, confines her to their 14th-storey housing-commission flat, to keep her safe from the outside world - and make sure she can’t get into any more trouble.
Stuck inside for endless hours, Karuna battles her mother and herself for a sense of power in her own life, as a new life forms and grows within her. As the due date draws ever closer, the question of who will get to raise the baby - who it will call Mum - festers between them.
One Hundred Days is a fractured fairytale exploring the fault lines between love and control. At times tense and claustrophobic, it is nevertheless brimming with humour, warmth and character. It is a magnificent new work from one of Australia’s most celebrated authors.

This book got off to a slow start but about halfway through I realised that I loved this story.
The last section was magnificent.

Raw and beautiful
Alice Pung beautifully captures the raw, problematic and beautiful relationship so many mother’s and daughter navigate throughout their lives. I value Alice’s ability to capture how a mother’s excessive nurturing can be suffocating for a daughter, but from a mother’s perspective it is to protect her. This books follows a teenager, developing her relationship with her mother, as well has becoming a mother herself. It is a book that so effortlessly captures how a mother be so blinding and self-sacrificing.

A fabulous story
The mother made me want to scream with all her crazy superstitions and ridiculous opinions and the way she treated her daughter, and I felt so much empathy for Karuna.
I grew up in the 80s so it was a bit of a buzz that this book was set then.
The end of the last chapter (not the epilogue) was a bit soppy and was the only thing that detracted from the book.
The narration was perfect.
