About this listen

A novel based on the emotional conflict centered around a son’s urge to sever the psychological umbilical cord which ties him to a selfish and possessive mother. Completely unsympathetic to his young experiences and inclinations, forever critical of his interests and reactions, she nevertheless appeals to his sympathies and attempts to hold him emotionally.

An intriguing story of a mother/son relationship, beautifully executed. I was sad to finish it.

Beautifully written and extremely well narrated. Thank you, I so enjoyed it.
