Surreal and splendidly unconventional, The Hearing Trumpet is an apocalyptic fairy-tale quest about an occult old ladies' home and the spry nonagenarian who ends up there. After coming into possession of a hearing trumpet, 92-year-old Marian Leatherby discovers her son's plans to send her to a nursing home. But this is no ordinary place.... Here there are strange rituals, orgiastic nuns, levitating abbesses, animalistic humans, humanistic animals, a search for the Holy Grail, and a plan to escape to Lapland and knit a tent....

Surrealist painter Leonora Carrington's novel is an exhilarating journey brimming with laugh-out-loud humor and absurd lunacy.

What a discovery! This is the book I would’ve liked to write, full of magical realism, and a vision that keeps bending, bending bending our notion of what should happen. All the while, keeping wonderful solid characters.

I want to see this as a movie

Loved this surrelast gypsy dream of a novel flirting with loneliness, isolation, old age, and archaic phantasms.

Brilliantly performed. The voice actress kept me engaged. The story itself started very much normal than took a drastic dip into fantasy out of nowhere. Interesting to say the least.

I can't say that I followed a plot so much as that I simply enjoyed the ride. From bearded ladies to the Spanish Revolution to werewolves saving the grail. The narration was absolutely perfect.

fantastical ride

One of the strangest stories I have ever had the pleasure of reading. Endlessly surreal and funny The Hearing Trumpet is a wonderful read about aging, witches and global cooling.

Weird and wonderful

I can honestly say that this is one of the oddest books I've ever read but in a very good way. The narrator was outstanding. I hope anyone who glances at this review will take a chance on this book. You will not read another one like it.

This book keeps you guessing, and then slowly, as if you are joining a cult, brings you to accept increasingly bizzare concepts until you are neck deep in a strange reality without knowing how you arrived there.

Beautiful and surreal

I so much enjoyed this light-hearted, often comical, well-written and skillful story. So entertainingly laying bear the foibles of humanity from the perspective of a ninety-something adventuress.

A unique story by a unique mind.

A wonderful surrealistic fairy tale with wise old women at its center. A great listen.

Fascinating

The storyline and writing was wonderful! What an interesting view of what growing old must be like. I really enjoyed this book. Nice job!

Delightful
