Along the Infinite Sea

De: Beatriz Williams

Narrado por: Kathleen McInerney

Each of the three Schuyler sisters has her own world-class problems, but in the autumn of 1966, Pepper Schuyler's problems are in a class of their own. When Pepper fixes up a beautiful and rare vintage Mercedes and sells it at auction, she thinks she's finally found a way to take care of herself and the baby she carries, the result of an affair with a married, legendary politician.

But the car's new owner turns out to have secrets of her own, and as the glamorous and mysterious Annabelle Dommerich takes pregnant Pepper under her wing, the startling provenance of this car comes to light: a Nazi husband, a Jewish lover, a flight from Europe, and a love so profound it transcends decades. As the many threads of Annabelle's life from World War II stretch out to entangle Pepper in 1960s America, and the father of her unborn baby tracks her down to a remote town in coastal Georgia, the two women must come together to face down the shadows of their complicated pasts.

Indomitable heroines, a dazzling world of secrets, champagne at the Paris Ritz, and a sweeping love story for the ages in New York Times best-selling author Beatriz William's final book about the Schuyler sisters.

Rollicking yarn that holds you in its grip

This is another of Beatriz Williams exciting historical jaunts through the twentieth century. Highly enjoyable, though the text could have used some judicious editing of the sex scenes in particular. A bit cringe-making!

my favorite book!! Can't stop thinking about it.

Where does Along the Infinite Sea rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It is definitely one of the best!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Along the Infinite Sea?

Everything started coming together in the last hour of the book. That was when I wanted to start it over and pay better attention to details and clues from the beginning.

What about Kathleen McInerney’s performance did you like?

She changed voices very well, but I did not love her depiction of the men in the book. They all sounded choppy/rough/not friendly at all. Almost like robots.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Annabelle finds Stephan again.

Any additional comments?

I didn't care for Pepper's voice. Loved this book though!

Love it.

I read it a couple years ago, and listened to it for my book club and it's still such a wonderful book. One of my favorites.

Captivating read

Excellent performance and very enjoyable story. The characters were well developed and I enjoyed getting to know them.

Incredible Can’t Stop Listening to it Book

Fantastic humanistic journey thru a difficult period in history. Romantic dual stories culminating into one uplifting end. Characters still seem real. They exist somewhere in Time. Testament to the humanistic side and strength of character possible

Wonderful

I enjoyed this book immensely. It's a love story that is real, with life intruding and changing its course just when you're ready to settle down and enjoy it. this story is filled with twists and turns and perils and joy. It will keep you guessing right up to the last page!

Beautiful

If you are a romantic and love historical fiction you will love this beautiful love story!!!

Wonderful!

This book goes back to Germany and the war and then comes forward. Was very interesting to listen to, because things like this that long ago probably did happen. It is sad the way some lives were torn apart, and yet others were brought together. Loved the book! Kathleen is one of my favorite narrators !!!

loved this novel

If you could sum up Along the Infinite Sea in three words, what would they be?

This is one of the best books our moms book club has ever read. I would like to read more of her novels! I was sucked in and then sad when the book was over.

Great story and narrator

Thankfully I finally found a second audio book in which I both enjoyed the story and the narrator!

Highly recommend this enjoyable love story woven among historical events.
