About this listen

Colm Tóibín's Mothers and Sons is a sensitive and beautifully written meditation on the dramas surrounding this most elemental of relationships. Psychologically intricate and emotionally incisive, each finely wrought story teases out the delicate and difficult strands woven between mothers and sons. This is an acute, masterful and moving collection that confirms Tóibín as a great prose stylist of our time.

All the narrators were excellent but Caroline Lennon is superb. She's all Toibin and brings his stories alive for me.

beautiful story telling..

Looked forward to this book after another from this author. Couldn't struggle on with it - too harsh and depressing.

Disappointed 😞
