In the turbulent summer of 1974, Kate Mularkey has accepted her place at the bottom of the eighth-grade social food chain. Then, to her amazement, the "coolest girl in the world" moves in across the street and wants to be her friend. Tully Hart seems to have it all - beauty, brains, ambition.

Anju and Sudha formed an astounding, almost psychic connection during their childhood in India. When Anju invites Sudha, a single mother in Calcutta, to come live with her and her husband, Sunil, in California, Sudha foolishly accepts, knowing full well that Sunil has long desired her. As Sunil's attraction rises to the surface, the trio must struggle to make sense of the freedoms of America - and of the ties that bind them to India and to one another.

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.

Stranger Here is the brutally honest, surprisingly hilarious story of one woman's journey from one extreme of the weight spectrum to the other, and of the unexpected emotional chaos it created. Insightful and unsparing in her self-examination, Larsen depicts the exhilarating highs and devastating lows she experienced as a result of her weight loss, the incredible joy of finally beginning to look like the image of herself she's always carried inside her head, and the crushing pain and confusion of feeling like a stranger in her own body after losing the weight that has always defined her.

Amazing story that leaves you wanting more!
Would you listen to Between again? Why?
Yes, I would listen again. Between is a novel full of very complex characters dealing with an extremely difficult set of both emotional and practical matters. Still, it's hard to believe the story isn't true!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Carolyn was my favorite character. I could relate the best to her situation. Her actions throughout the book inspired me.
What does Susanna Burney bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Susanna Burney's reading of the novel is wonderful. The author's beautiful writing comes to life with Susanna's interpretation and the words seem to almost "sing" at times.
If you could take any character from Between out to dinner, who would it be and why?
I think I could learn the most from a face to face discussion with Barbara, so she would be my choice for a dinner companion.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
