Book description
We Are Not Ourselves - An Audiobook Review
Matthew Thomas's We Are Not Ourselves is a cinematic journey that the narrator brings to life with vivid, authentic voice work. The story follows Eileen Tumulty, an Irish-American immigrant in 1941 Queens who dreams of a brighter future in Bronxville. From the first moment, the audiobook immerses you in the bustling, alcohol-drunk family apartment and the hopeful hum of a young woman's aspirations.
What makes this recording stand out is how it captures the book's emotional arc without losing its lyrical quality. The narrator's warm tone mirrors Eileen's longing, while sharper inflections highlight the tension that creeps into her marriage with Ed. As the couple confronts "an inescapable darkness," the performance shifts from hopeful optimism to palpable dread-every line delivered with a subtle gravitas that keeps listeners on edge.
Critics have called the novel "stunning" and "superbly rendered." The audiobook does exactly that, translating Thomas's richly detailed prose into an engaging soundscape. You hear the clatter of dishes, the distant rumble of city life, and the quiet moments that reveal the characters' inner worlds-all without breaking the narrative flow.
For anyone who loves sweeping family sagas, We Are Not Ourselves offers a masterful listening experience. It's a testament to the American dream's promise and its pitfalls, delivered with an intimacy that only an audiobook can provide. Pick up your headphones and let Thomas guide you through a story that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant.
