About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

In the depths of the archive, Hannah dances with the ghosts of Vichy France, lost in testimony and a desire to hear the voices of the past. Back in her apartment, Moroccan teenager Tariq crashes on her sofa, consumed by his search for the mother he barely knew. Their excavations will unearth rich histories that will teach them both just how much the future is worth fighting for.

Paris Echo is a propulsive and haunting novel of empire and identity, told with biting wit and tenderness, which exposes the shadows of the city of lights.

The descriptive narrative paints a picture of present day Paris and evokes memories of past events, which need to be retold and reinforced for all listeners, especially the younger listeners.

Well worth down loading and listening to. Highly recommended.

An excellent story well narrated

I am enjoying the book but cannot continue to listen. One of the narrators has a bad case of vocal fry. If you are going to be a professional narrator I think you need to have a voice that is good to listen to. So much croaking

Voices are as important as the book
