About this listen
Hear why The New York Times Book Review called Cander “a smart, deft storyteller”.
Eloise hasn't quite figured out how to move on after the death of her son, Eddie. She makes good money, buys a new apartment, learns the piano, engages in an office flirtation, but nothing seems to brighten her days quite like the occasional letter from one of her accounting clients, Ed B. When, after months of correspondence, Ed invites Eloise to his country home for a visit, she finds herself overwhelmed by the "Eddies" of her life - the one she lost, the one she writes to, and the one she's eternally searching for.
"A powerful storyteller." (Lone Star Literary)

Achingly Beautiful
I almost feel inadequate to the task of putting a review into words. This was a short but completely fulfilling story of heartbreak and love. A whole life told in under an hour, and I think I experienced every single emotion there is, as I listened.
Perfectly written and expertly read, and I would recommend it to anyone who has ever cared about another human being.
This story will be in my dreams tonight for sure.

Not quite
Had great expectations, but the quality felt short. Has the making of a good story though, but it felt short. Maybe because it aimed to be short?

So dark and lonely, bleak. Just when there might be hope for a sorely needed cheerful encounter, the story ends? Is there a missing chapter, or should l make up my own?

Loved this short story! It ends with my imagination running wild with scenarios.
Hoping for another chapter or 10 to this story with so much backstory revealed, yet not resolved.
