About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Max didn’t believe in an afterlife. Until he died.

As a reluctant ghost trying to work out why he remains, Max watches his girlfriend Hannah lost in grief in the flat they shared and begins to realise how much of her life was invisible to him. In the weeks and months before Max’s death, Hannah is haunted by the secrets she left Australia to escape.

A relationship with Max seems to offer the potential of a different story, but the past refuses to stay hidden. It finds expression in the untold stories of the people she grew up with, the details of their lives she never knew and the events that broke her family apart and led her to Max.

Both a celebration and autopsy of a relationship, The Echoes is a novel about stories and who has the right to tell them, asking what of our past can we shrug off and what is fixed forever.

Profile Image for Kathryn

By turns a delicately loving and agonisingly raw exploration of ancestral wounding and loss.

Sebastian Humphreys and Vivien Carter are perfectly cast to unfold Evie Wyld's beautiful, and at times harrowing book exploring love and grief, including loss from the unique perspective of a ghost, played with infinite sensibility by Humphreys. This performance wraps its subtle web around the almost pragmatic delivery of Carter...at first hard for me to grasp as a listener, but as the painful story of Hannah emerges against the backdrop of Australias bloody past, we realise Carter has been expertly directed to mirror the book, which witholds judgement, leaving us to draw our own conclusions. Seven hours listening pass in a moment...
