About this listen

 With university behind her, Emily Stanton finds herself on the threshold of life. Introduced to a Scottish engineer, the exoticism of his life in Paris beckons, and she leaves her family home in twenties Melbourne to become his wife. But far from providing answers, her conventional marriage awakens in her an ardent desire to find a reason for living beyond that of simply wife and mother, a desire that leads her to flirt with risk, passion and unorthodox friendships, and carries her to Tunisia on a journey of self-questioning and intellectual reawakening. Conditions of Faith is a provocative romance, but it is also an elegant and intellectually abundant meditation on a timeless dilemma.©2000 Alex Miller.

Critic reviews

'A truly significant addition to our literature.' (The Washington Post)
'My private acid test of a literary work is whether, having read it, it lingers in my mind afterward. Conditions of Faith fulfils that criterion; I am still thinking about Emily.' (Colleen McCullough)
'This is an amazing book. The reader can't help but offer up a prayerful thank you: Thank you, God, that human beings still have the audacity to write like this.' (The Washington Post)
'I think we shall see few finer or richer novels this year ... a singular achievement.' (Australian Book Review)

An amazing story narrated by one of Australia's best Actresses Essie Davis. You can see her almost saying it before an audience. The differant accents are very good. It's pity she hasn't done more books.
