Book description
the river roars. flanagan's voice in your ear. young man trapped in rapids. not knowing if he lives or dies. the water's roar like the bomb's hum. his father near hiroshima. slave labourer. the atom bomb drops. history's not a straight line. it's a daisy chain. h.g. wells. rebecca west's affair. 1930s nuclear physics. all tangled in flanagan's memory. his island home. his parents. love song. hypnotic. dream and history and literature and place. all melting. not reality. not made by realists. our lives rise from stories. others' stories. the stories we tell ourselves. the river keeps flowing. the past keeps whispering. flanagan's words on the audiobook. not read. heard. felt in your bones. the rhythm of the words. like the river's pulse. the bomb's echo. the love song's ache. you don't just hear the story. you feel the water in your throat. the weight of history pressing down. the way a story can drown you. or save you. it's not about the facts. it's about the telling. how we shape ourselves from the fragments. the echoes. the stories we invent. the stories others give us. the river rushes on. flanagan's voice holds you there. trapped in the current. not knowing. just listening. to the stories that made you. to the stories that will keep you going. the audiobook isn't just words. it's the sound of memory. the sound of being alive. the sound of the past never really leaving. it's the daisy chain. the fission. the quiet explosion in your own head. the moment you realize. your life is a story. and you're still writing it. while the river flows.
