Hailed by "The Sunday Times" as "one of the outstanding novels of the year", "The Believers" explores big ideas with a light touch, delivering a tragic, comic family story as unsparing as it is filled with compassion. When Audrey makes a devastating discovery about her husband, she is forced to re-examine everything she thought she knew about their forty-year marriage. Their children will soon have to come to terms with this unsettling secret, but for the meantime, they are trying to cope with their own dilemmas. Rosa, a disillusioned revolutionary; Karla, an unhappily married social worker; and, adopted brother Lenny who is back on drugs again. In the course of battling their own demons and each other, every member of the family is called upon to decide what - if anything - they still believe in. This recording is unabridged.
