Book description
Lauren Elkin's Scaffolding unfolds with a quiet, resonant power that lingers long after the final chapter. This isn't merely a novel about two couples in the same Paris apartment across fifty years-it's a masterclass in how memory and space intertwine. The audiobook format elevates the experience profoundly, with a narrator whose voice feels like a trusted confidante, guiding you through the intricate, almost architectural layers of the story.
You'll hear Anna, a psychoanalyst grappling with grief in 2019, meticulously measuring her kitchen-a space echoing with the ghosts of past lives-as she connects with Clémentine, a member of a radical feminist collective. Then, seamlessly, you slip into 1972: Florence, a psychology student hopeful for motherhood, and Henry, uncertain of fatherhood, navigate their own kitchen renovation amid political shifts. The dual timelines aren't just parallel; they're woven together like threads in a tapestry, their struggles with fidelity, ambition, and the weight of expectation resonating across decades.
What makes this work so brilliantly is how Elkin avoids tidy resolutions. The characters remain stubbornly human, their choices echoing in the walls of the apartment itself. The audiobook's pacing mirrors this-gentle, deliberate, allowing the significance of a shared hallway or a lingering scent of paint to carry emotional weight. You don't just hear the story; you feel the resonance of Florence's footsteps on the same floorboards Anna now walks, the unresolved tension between Henry and Florence humming in the air Clémentine breathes.
This is a novel that understands how deeply we are shaped by the spaces we inhabit and the people who once did too. The ghosts aren't spectral-they're the quiet hum of history in the pipes, the echo of conversations in the kitchen, the way a home holds the stories it's witnessed. Elkin doesn't just tell us about connection; she makes you hear it, feel it in the rhythm of the narration, in the spaces between the words. It's a profound, moving testament to how our pasts never truly leave us, and how the most ordinary rooms can become vessels for extraordinary memory. The audiobook isn't just a way to experience Scaffolding-it's the only way to truly feel its quiet, enduring truth.
