Lonesome Lies Before Us

A Novel

De: Don Lee

Narrado por: Corey M. Snow

Yadin Park is a talented alt-country musician whose career has floundered - doomed first by his homely looks and lack of stage presence and then by a progressive hearing disorder. His girlfriend, Jeanette Matsuda, might have been a professional photographer but for a devastating heartbreak in her teens. Now Yadin works for Jeanette's father's carpet-laying company in California while Jeanette cleans rooms at a local resort. When Yadin's former lover and musical partner, the celebrated Mallory Wicks, comes back into his life, private hopes and dreams are exposed and secret fantasies about love and success are put to the test. Beautifully sad and laced with dark humor, Lonesome Lies Before Us is a profound, heartfelt romance, a soulful and memorable song.

Don Lee is a hidden gem.

His writings always deals with the core of a person’s identity and the most sacred value that the main character holds. He is a true American writer who has better understanding of the experience and dilemma of having sn Asian background than most Asian American writers of today. His writings are intimate and beautiful. I have an issue with this recording for the ending bleeds into the credit so quickly, one cannot properly savor the beauty of the end of the book.
