With a zillion one-liners packed into this unabridged audio, you can't expect them all to be funny, and they aren't. To appreciate most of this audio, you probably have to be pregnant, or to have had that experience at some point in your life. Fortunately, the late humorist also holds forth on a wider range of everyday experiences, such as aging, overeating, weight gain, housework, exercise (or the lack of it), and getting along with your neighbors, friends, husband, and children. Though the 1970 material occasionally sounds dated, Barbara Rosenblat's reading perks it up.

Complete with creative production touches, the result is a dark, satisfying listen.
Listeners don't just experience a fascinating historical drama--they also become steeped in a bloody gothic Western. Stellar performances are the center of this compelling listening experience. Narrator Marin Ireland fully embodies the beleaguered humanities professor who, while deep diving into the campus archive, discovers the story of her ancestors. At the same time, she is struggling with her tenure committee. In a deft transition back to 1912, Owen Teale's performance of a Lutheran pastor exhibits gravitas as he slowly unwinds the secrets of his relationship with Good Stab, a Blackfeet Indian who mysteriously appears in his congregation. Shane Ghostkeeper provides Good Stab with a subtle yet ferocious performance as the two face each other's buried truths.
