Download Flora: A Novel AudioBook Free
Ten-year-old Helen and her summertime guardian, Flora, are isolated alongside one another in Helen's decaying family house while her father is doing magic formula battle work in Oak Ridge during the final months of World Conflict II. At three Helen lost her mother and the much loved grandmother who elevated her has just died. A fiercely imaginative child, Helen is eager to keep her house intact with all its ghosts and tales. Flora, her past due mother's twenty-two-year old first cousin, who cries at the drop of a hat, is ardently driven to do her best for Helen. Their romance and its fallout, performed against a backdrop of a lost America will haunt Helen for the others of her life. This darkly beautiful audiobook in regards to a child and a caretaker in isolation evokes hues of The Move of the Screw and also harks back again to Godwin's memorable novel of growing up, The Finishing School. Using its house on top of a hill and a child who may be a bomb that will 1 day set off, Flora tells a tale of love, regret, and the items we can not undo.
