First published in 1924 and an immediate bestseller at the time, The Home-Maker by Dorothy Canfield Fisher is one of the greatest novels ever written about the parent/child relationship.
Set in small-town New England, it is the moving story of Eva, who is bored and unhappy as an obsessively house-proud mother and home-maker, and her husband Lester, who is miserable in his job as a clerk and wishes he could spend more time with his children.
The Home-Maker is part of the Persephone Audiobook Collection produced in partnership with Macmillan Collector's Library.
Also available as a Persephone Grey and a Persephone Classic.
Available wherever you usually get your audiobooks.
