Labyrinth of Dreams

She has a dream. He has a plan. But an unexpected secret child could destroy everything.

De: Nadee Fernando-O’Driscoll

Narrado por: Devin Miller

Sometimes the biggest story of your life happens before you’re even born… and sometimes, you get to discover it. One email is all it takes to turn Mala’s life upside down… an email from a stranger 10,000 miles away. Now, as memories from her childhood swirl up in familiarity, she sees them in a different light, as though they’re puzzle pieces that have a new way to fit together. Everything is the same, yet everything is different… The story she thought she knew is true, but there’s been another truth running beneath it the whole time. At 53 years old, Mala didn’t think she had anything new to learn about her past, but now she sees just how much information she’s been missing. She has a decision to make: Will she meet Sakura, the face behind the email, or will she go on pretending that there are no missing pieces in the story of her life? As she wrestles with her decision, we’re taken back in time to 1972 and the story of Aunty Helen, Uncle Peter, and the secret child they must decide what to do with… a story that has had more of an effect on Mala’s life than she’s ever known. When we make sense of the past, we begin to make sense of ourselves, and Mala’s in for a huge voyage of discovery… and maybe, a whole new chapter of her life.

Wow. What a beautiful, emotional ride. The story pulled me in right away with that mysterious email and I couldn’t stop listening after that. What really hit me was how Mala is 53, thinking she already knows her story, and suddenly, life throws her a curveball.

the weight of timing

It’s not just about two people trying to make it work, it’s about the mess they’ve both carried into the relationship, especially once that secret child shows up.
