Award-winning author Jane Hamilton touched readers' hearts with her emotionally-charged novel, A Map of the World. She intimately involves her readers, again, with The Book of Ruth, winner of the PEN/Ernest Hemingway Award.

Growing up in a world of physical and emotional poverty, Ruth believes her shrewish mother's assessment of her - that she is dimwitted and worthless. When she marries an emotionally unstable ne'er-do-well, her troubles only multiply. Her job at the dry cleaners can't afford her little family the luxury of moving out of her mother's house. As the incessant bickering between her troubled husband and her abusive mother reaches a violent climax, Ruth must find a way to survive. The Book of Ruth shines as a bittersweet testament to the resilience of the human spirit.

Although the protagonist is verbally beaten down by her mother and those around her, she never plays the victim. She and the other characters were wonderfully developed and the narration was great. I enjoyed listening to the story and was left wanting more at then end. It was touching how she began to become more confident, but like all of us still had her doubts.

This is a stunningly beautiful book dark, yet written and narrated so strongly it rises above the darkness. It’s slow, but almost every sentence is a winner. The narrator did an amazing job binging the characters to life.

Beautiful writing, narrated so well

I'm always awestruck by the story itself and its retelling. They want 15 words in a review, but this book never fails to leave me speechless.

One of my all-time favorite books 📚

How Ruth survives a seemingly uncaring mother and a not very bright abusive husband is a story that keeps you listening and wondering how she survives. The narrator is fabulous

An Incredibl Story

The story itself is difficult to hear. Abuse, violence, and delusion abound. The writing is sharp and cold, a twisted tale that’s woven together with intelligent, clever thread.

Sharp writing

This was a tragic, heart wrenching story. It was like watching a train wreck that you couldn’t turn away from. You know the end result but you keep watching anyway. I felt sorry for almost every character except one. I’m glad it was so short. The narrator was perfect for this sorrowful story.

Tragic

A beautifully written book full of incredible details and poetic moments. Narrated well but the pauses are noticeably annoying. Overall a terrific listen!

Beautiful Work!

loved the history being explained in-depth before the crux of the story came to fruition. The artist who verbalize the author thoughts and ideas of the main character was splendid.
