Story
It's 1969, and a remote coastal town in Western Australia is poised to play a pivotal part in the moon landing. Radar technician Evan Johnson and his colleagues stare at a grainy screen, transfixed, as Armstrong takes that first small step.
I was in my cage, of course, unheard, underestimated, biscuit crumbs on my beak. But fate is a curious thing. For just as Evan's story is about to end, my story prepares to take flight.

It is 1866 and Walter Moody has come to make his fortune upon the New Zealand goldfields. On arrival, he stumbles across a tense gathering of 12 local men, who have met in secret to discuss a series of unsolved crimes. A wealthy man has vanished, a whore has tried to end her life, and an enormous fortune has been discovered in the home of a luckless drunk. Moody is soon drawn into the mystery: a network of fates and fortunes that is as complex and exquisitely patterned as the night sky.

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.

would have preferred a single narrator
It's very well produced. However, I found the different narrators used for each part annoying and slightly confusing, esp since they all do voices for the characters meaning that each character sounds different in each part. You get used to it, but it's jarring when there's a transition, especially the first time it's happened and you think you've landed in another book.

Went no where fast
I found it to be just a ramble and disjointed. The author has one heck of an obsession with masterbation and that particular dialogue added nothing to the story. It went on so much I opted out and did not listen to the rest of it

Wonderful story and incredible performances
I loved this book. It was well written with a compelling plot.
Sometimes I feel like I missed out on something by listening to the audiobook rather than reading it in my own voice, but this was absolutely not the case with this one. The readings were outstanding and a delight to listen to. I wouldn’t just recommend this book, I would recommend the audiobook specifically.

Getting through this audiobook felt like a chore
I think Zadie Smith is a great writer and inspiring individual, that being said I really didn’t enjoy this audiobook. I found the story and most of its characters quite dull and I was strained to make it through this arduous tale. Maybe it’s because I grew up and have lived in the area featured in this book and know the many people just like the characters that I found nothing fascinating in them. I also found some of the narration quite numbly delivered, although not all of it as it does have four narrators covering each quarter of the book.
I felt this story would have been best told as a comedy, yet there are very few laughs throughout the book.
