Jane Two

A Novel

De: Sean Patrick Flanery

Narrado por: Sean Patrick Flanery

A coming of age debut audiobook from accomplished actor, director, and writer Sean Patrick Flanery explores that powerful first taste of love that sets the bar for something that we'll chase, usually unsuccessfully, for the rest of our lives. A young Mickey navigates through the dense Texas humidity of the 70's and out onto the porch every single time his Granddaddy calls him, where he's presented with the heirloom recipe for life, love, and manhood. But all the logic and insight in the world cannot prepare him to operate correctly in the presence of a wonderfully beautiful little girl who moves in just behind his rear fence. How will this magical moment divide Mickey's life into a "before and after" and permanently change his motion and direct it down the unpaved road to which only a lucky few are granted access?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Sean Patrick Flanery's coming-of-age story, like the land he hails from, has a quiet, giant, unpredictable heart."—Todd Field

"Flanery writes with such clarity and truth that the places and people jump off the page."—Jon Cassar, Director of 24

"JANE TWO has the dreamy authority of an elusive memory and the poetic whimsy that only comes with distance."—Ken Sanzel, Writer/Executive Producer of Numb3rs

"An unexpected gem. Flanery is the poet warrior."—Jim Crabbe, Producer of Bad Country

"This authentic coming-of-age story is told through the wholly masculine, first-person perspective of Mickey, who looks back at his formative years in Houston, Tex., when he was tucked inside the cocoon of small-town family life, tumultuous schoolyard bullies and friends, and also captivated by first love...Flanery brings the 1970s to robust life, with Pontiac Firebirds, Converse sneakers, and eight-track players blasting Lynyrd Snynyrd in this tearjerker."—Kathleen Gerard, Shelf Awareness

"Jane Two [is] so addictive, so utterly un-put-downable."

A must for everyone

I decided to listen to Jane Two because I am a fan of Sean Patrick Flannery. What I found in this book is a truly inspirational and moving story. Having Sean read the book brings it to life in a way few audiobooks have for me. The emotion and feeling that pours out is more like a heart's cry than a story.

I would honestly recommend this book to everyone with one exception. If you shy away from cursing or language, you might be distracted and not able to immerse yourself in the story. However, I hope you can put that aside so you can enjoy this wonderful story!

Amazing story but frustrating

The writing and characters were amazing. I would call this book an adventure in a uncomfortable place for me. I don't regret reading it for a minute. It changes you.

I am a unicorn and I loved this book.

it was fun to hear all the memories from the 70s reminded me of growing up when there was no internet. it was the best time. the reading was amazing I miss listening already. thanks for a great time.

Great read!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! I also loved the narration of it ♡ so easy to listen to and imagine the characters.

Superbly Written and Narrated

After 114 books from Audible, this is my first review that I felt compelled to write, yes it is that good. Best narrated book I have listened to yet, you will often forget it is only one person reading this story. Characters are distinctive & memorable, GrandDaddy's nuggets of wisdom throughout the story are golden. A beautiful story which has you rooting for young Mickey to jump through the portholes of opportunities presented down his life's path. A truly unforgettable novel.
