Histoire
This fast-paced, timely novel of tolerance brings us a young, likeable, John Lennon-type of protagonist who has made the book a hit with listeners of surprisingly different backgrounds. It has also been a great selection for book clubs all over the country. The story is reminiscent of such thought-provoking classics as Siddhartha (Hermann Hesse) and The Alchemist (Paolo Coelho). Christ’s DNA is discovered in an ancient relic - and secretly used to create a boy. He is never told the truth about his conception.

Histoire
At times stern, at other times patient, at times perceptive, at other times in sad denial, Olive Kitteridge, a retired schoolteacher, deplores the changes in her little town of Crosby, Maine, and in the world at large, but she doesn’t always recognize the changes in those around her: a lounge musician haunted by a past romance; a former student who has lost the will to live; Olive’s own adult child, who feels tyrannized by her irrational sensitivities; and her husband, Henry, who finds his loyalty to his marriage both a blessing and a curse.

Micah Mortimer is a creature of habit. A self-employed tech expert, superintendent of his Baltimore apartment building, cautious to a fault behind the steering wheel, he seems content leading a steady, circumscribed life. But one day, his routines are blown apart when his woman friend (he refuses to call anyone in her late 30s a "girlfriend") tells him she's facing eviction, and a teenager shows up at Micah's door claiming to be his son. These surprises, and the ways they throw Micah's meticulously organized life off-kilter, risk changing him forever.

Description
The sensational Sunday Times best seller from Jessie Burton, the million-copy bestselling author of The Miniaturist and The Muse.
One winter's afternoon on Hampstead Heath in 1980, Elise Morceau meets Constance Holden and quickly falls under her spell. Connie is bold and alluring, a successful writer whose novel is being turned into a major Hollywood film. Elise follows Connie to LA, a city of strange dreams and swimming pools and late-night gatherings of glamorous people. But whilst Connie thrives on the heat and electricity of this new world where everyone is reaching for the stars and no one is telling the truth, Elise finds herself floundering. When she overhears a conversation at a party that turns everything on its head, Elise makes an impulsive decision that will change her life forever.
Three decades later, Rose Simmons is seeking answers about her mother, who disappeared when she was a baby. Having learned that the last person to see her was Constance Holden, a reclusive novelist who withdrew from public life at the peak of her fame, Rose is drawn to the door of Connie's imposing house in search of a confession....
From the million-copy best-selling author of The Miniaturist and The Muse, The Confession is a luminous, powerful and deeply moving novel about secrets and storytelling, motherhood and friendship, and how we lose and find ourselves.

Intriguing
I truly enjoyed how you get to understand Connie as who she is now before understanding who she was then. It just shows that people really do change over the years and one cannot judge others by who they were in the past. Her character was my favourite. I am not a mother but I can see how mothers would understand more the emotions that all of the women go through. Worth the listen.

This book is incredible!
I love Jessie Burton’s writing and this is my favourite of her books. She just keeps getting better and better. This book made me ache. It made me cry. It made me think. It made me see things in myself I hadn’t seen before. And it’s read so beautifully by Hayley Atwell, too. Simply incredible.
