À propos de ce contenu audio

Bernadette Fox is notorious.

To Elgie Branch, a Microsoft wunderkind, she's his hilarious, volatile, talented, troubled wife.
To fellow mothers at the school gate, she's a menace.
To design experts, she's a revolutionary architect.
And to 15-year-old Bee, she is a best friend and, quite simply, mum.

Then Bernadette disappears. And Bee must take a trip to the end of the earth to find her.

Where'd You Go, Bernadette is a compulsively readable, irresistibly written, deeply touching novel about misplaced genius and a mother and daughter's place in the world.

    It's intelligent but easy to read; eccentric but never twee.
    I love the extraordinarily well-drawn characters, the plot, the tender, lovely relationship, the humour, and the courage to do daring things (Nina Stibbe)
    Extremely funny, often laugh-out-loud so... with her penchant for unexpected twists and smart, jet propelled dialogue, Semple has a way of combining a technologically savvy, ice-cool wit with a stealthy ability to show gradually a character's warmer side
    The characters in Bernadette may be in real emotional pain, but Semple has the wit and perspective and imagination to make their story hilarious. I tore through this book with heedless pleasure
    Fresh and funny and accomplished, but the best thing about it was that I never had any idea what was going to happen next. It was a wild ride
    A fresh, flamboyantly witty new voice
    A delightfully funny book, that constantly catches one by surprise, Where'd You Go, Bernadette combines a shrewdly observed portrait of Seattle life with, of all things, a mysterious disappearance in Antarctica. A pleasure
    Maria Semple dissects the gory complexities of familial dysfunction with a deft and tender hand. Where'd You Go, Bernadette is a triumph of social observation and black comedy by a skilful chronicler of moneyed malaise
    If you loved the humour of A VISIT FROM THE GOON SQUAD, pack this sharp, witty novel...A fabulously kooky tale
    A clever, witty page-turner with sparkling dialogue, some hilarious episodes and a heart that gradually melts
    [A] deeply touching novel about misplaced genius and a mother and daughter's place in the world. A seriously compulsive read
    In what is at times a sad and painful tale about family dysfunction, black comedy waylays sentimentality. Semple's second novel is a witty, thrilling adventure about creation, destruction, the Antarctic - and the maternal bond
    The funniest book I've read in a decade. I laughed to the point of crying on an airplane. My wife thought I'd lost my mind until she read it a few days later
    A novel full of honesty and heart

    Pourriez-vous dire que l'écoute de ce livre était du temps utilisé à bon escient ? Expliquez pourquoi.

    The dramatization makes the listening enjoyable and the story less monotonous but to put it mildly it gets really over-dramatized at times (often) which is not very convenient if you are using earplugs. It literally hurt my eardrums and I had to keep adjusting the volume back and forth which got annoying after a while.But I wouldn't have read this book if it wasn't for this audio format, so I'm glad for that.

    Good performance but gets overdramatized & loud
