STONE YARD DEVOTIONAL by Charlotte Wood, read by Ailsa Piper

AudioFile’s Kendra Winchester and host Jo Reed discuss how narrator Ailsa Piper evokes the stark Australian Outback in her performance of this captivating novel, shortlisted for the Booker Prize. To escape her busy life in the city, a middle-aged woman visits a small religious community for peace and quiet. Years later, she returns to the community, this time for good. But not long after she joins the nuns in their daily life, a plague of mice descends upon the entire state. As the mice invade every nook and cranny of the nuns’ home, Piper conveys all of the eeriness of the event.
