A woman discovers her hidden potential in this dystopian short story about memory, identity, and imagination from Kaliane Bradley, the New York Times bestselling author of The Ministry of Time.

Nobody likes being on agricultural rotation, and with this heat wave, it’s almost more than Ester can take. She’s itching for something she can’t put words to—something she has no memory of wanting. But then, she can’t remember much beyond the past couple of years. She’s sent to the husband archive for a cure, but the man she checks out comes with baggage: stacks and stacks of paper he calls “books.” What they teach each other may prove hard to forget.

Kaliane Bradley’s A Visit to the Husband Archive is part of The Time Traveler’s Passport, an unforgettable collection of stories about memory, identity, and choice curated by New York Times bestselling anthologist John Joseph Adams. Watch time fly as you read or listen to each short story in a single sitting.

I really loved the narrator/narration - fantastic job.

I found the overall story very intresting and made me ask some "what ifs..." of our world (I always love those). However, there are lots of intriguing parts I'd love to have more context or deeper understanding about (the gods, the archive, johns background, etc.). But I also recognize it is a short story for a reason.

This is the first material I've encountered from this author & Id would listen/read more from them.

The ending was abrupt and left lots of questions & I'm not sure I understand it <-- This is my only dislike.

Enjoyable quick listen

Of the six novellas in the collection, this was my favorite for plot, originality, and entertainment.

Females who all lose their personal time experience and become amoral animalistic drones, and a small percentage of men who don't, retaining their personal and cultural memories while being signed out from the archives as "husbands." Well written, well read, enjoyable short listen

Intriguing premise

Ester, a drone contract killer on agricultural rotation, checks out John, a former literature professor, from a husband archive location. Generally an optimistic person, Ester can remember back to only about five years prior. It's a weird reality, filled with giant oozing colonizer aliens (aka: "gods," "Strangers") and no electricity.

Ester & John
