Resumen del Editor

“What does she want from me?” A young Iranian immigrant panics as she’s being chased through the streets by an unknown blonde woman. When their two worlds collide, the answer to that question becomes increasingly unsettling in Afsaneh Gray’s The Other Woman, a bracingly unpredictable audio experience. The two women find they share similar struggles in a society that doesn’t see them…but as their relationship develops, what feels like liberation begins to shift into an all-too-familiar dynamic. The Other Woman is an enthralling erotic thriller that explores cycles of power and exploitation all the way to its unsettling conclusion.

Playwright Afsaneh Gray was awarded a commission through the Audible Emerging Playwrights Fund, an initiative dedicated to developing innovative original plays driven by language and voice. As an Audible-commissioned playwright, she received funding and creative support to develop The Other Woman.

Directed by Elayce Ismail.

Sound design and original music by Melanie Wilson.

This audio play contains strong language and deals with mature themes. Listener discretion advised.

Weird

I'm into a lot of weird books and stories, but this was just bizarre. One of the weirdest things I've ever listened to and didn't turn out the way I expected at all.

Unexpected twist

That was different. I wasn’t sure what was really going on until the end . I’m still unsure of how I really feel about the story but it kept my interest throughout.

Confusing

Hard to follow.
But I did listen all the way through hopeful for it to turn around and make sense. But it never did.

So off

Really unrealistic. Tries to be erotic, but misses the mark. Tries to be suspenseful, but fails.

It was okay. I was expecting more suspense. It was almost there.

I thought the book was ok. I was expecting more suspense and detail. The scenes seem to skip a little bit.

All over the place

The plot was all over the place and didn’t really come together until the end.

Good acting, ok story

The actors were great but the story only ok. I read the reviews and it’s definitely not as gruesome as I had expected. It’s a short story and I didn’t see the end coming. Give it a go just for the fun of it.

Moral low ground.

I don’t know what this world is coming to. But I didn’t expect this on an Audible .

This is the second one in a month I’m returning.

Intrigued but bizarre

This story was intriguing at first, but then took a weird and then extra weird turn. It was a little erotic but mostly abusive.
