When All Is Said

De: Anne Griffin

Narrado por: Niall Buggy

Five toasts. Five people. One lifetime.

I'm here to remember - all that I have been and all that I will never be again.

At the bar of a grand hotel in a small Irish town sits 84-year-old Maurice Hannigan. He's alone, as usual - though tonight is anything but. Pull up a stool and charge your glass, because Maurice is finally ready to tell his story.

Over the course of this evening, he will raise five toasts to the five people who have meant the most to him. Through these stories - of unspoken joy and regret, a secret tragedy kept hidden, a fierce love that never found its voice - the life of one man will be powerfully and poignantly laid bare.

Heart-breaking and heart-warming all at once, the voice of Maurice Hannigan will stay with you long after all is said.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"An extraordinary novel, a poetic writer, and a story that moved me to tears." (John Boyne)

"A hugely enjoyable, engrossing novel, a genuine page-turner." (Donal Ryan)

Beautiful story and great narrator

What a beautiful story. At the beginning, I must say, I didn't like the narrator's voice. I just needed some time to get adapted (I'm not English mother tongue, at the beginning there were some words I didn't grasp). But he was perfect. He gave a full round personality and voice to the character. Great job, thank you !

Beautiful

This is a rich experience to sink into. I've been listening to audio booksfor18 years, and this is one of the best. Thank you Anne Griffin and Niall Buggy.

Niall Buggy brings this book to life

I rarely prefer an audio version to reading it myself but Niall Buggy makes this story flourish in a way that I couldn’t imagine. He draws out all the nuances of the language, his accent and exactly how a man of that time would reminisce of a time that I couldn’t conjure. Amazing work.

Just lovely

Brilliantly narrated, this is a touching story of memories and regret. It's reminiscent of an era when feelings were rarely discussed. People just took life as it came. Dispirited at such a young age by injustice and loss, Maurice was as hard on himself as he was on those he loved - but with a supremely soft side for others. A flawed yet endearing character. Very moving.

Exceptional

Loved this book deftly brought to life by the voice artist, Niall. One of the the best!
