American poet Maggie Smith beautifully narrates her memoir about the end of her marriage and rediscovering herself as she picks up the pieces. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Michele Cobb discuss the intimacy of listening to Smith narrate her own memoir, which is structured as a series of short narratives walking listeners through her life transition. Starting with her heartbreak, the memoir explores not only a very specific kind of pain, but also the roles that women embrace and grow into.
