About this listen

 In a snow-covered morning in upstate New York, a girl out riding her horse is hit by a 40-ton truck. Though horribly injured, both 13-year-old Grace and her horse Pilgrim survive. Annie, Grace's mother, refuses to have Pilgrim destroyed and hears about a man in Montana, a 'whisperer' who is said to have the gift of healing troubled horses. They set off across the continent to find him and there, under the massive Montana sky, all their lives are changed forever.©1995 Nicholas Evans (P)2014 Audible, Inc.

Loved the book and the film, so I knew I would love listening to this. I wasn't disappointed.

Loved it

Had me in tears several times. I became very wrapped up in the characters and cared about each immensely.

A very good listen.

Wonderful story, beautifully told

I would definitely recommend this but I felt, in places, that the story dragged - a lot of day-to-day action and interaction that didn’t really add anything. I think the narration is pretty good overall (although I understand what people mean about the female characters and the attempt at an English accent) and I liked the ending. Altogether, a wonderful love story interwoven with a touching depiction of a struggle to overcome trauma.

Good story but drags a bit

1. If I summed up the ‘The Horse Whisperer’ by Nicholas Evans in 3 words, what would they be? - Pictorial, emotive and captivating.

2. How credible/believable did I find the narrator to be? - On occasion I found Grace’s voice grating and Annie’s English accent indistinct, but overall William Dufris did an admirable job.

3. Do I have any additional comments? - One reviewer described Nicholas Evan’s literary skills as him possessing the ability to - “paint with words” - I wholeheartedly agree. This novel is incredibly memorable, evocative and moving - an absolute pleasure and worthwhile read/listen.

“ Eventually, you will come to understand that love heals everything, and love is all there is.”

Revisited the movie and was interested to read book. both great. movie deviates more towards end of story and can see why Redford chose his own way. Either way love both. Narrator excellent , made experience all the more enjoyable
