In a Dark Wood Audiobook (Unabridged)

" What a great description of "the nature of depression and of the healing power of storytelling in our lives." Quite absorbing, and such a vivid description of what so many people experience. A great find. "

" This is about a son's journey to discovering why his mother commited suicide. It is well written and different. It is not as dark as it seems. We all have to clean the cobwebs out of the corners of our minds , don't we? Try it you might like it! "

" The unlikeable narrator and jumpy plot ended up outweighing the interesting premise. "

" the blurb by andrew solomon made me buy this book which turned out to be an inventive and perceptive depiction of a breakdown. it made me search for other titles by amanda craig. "

" Very dark, very British. An immersion in fairy tale psychology and an inward quest with the (rather unlikeable) protagonist. I do wonder why the author chose to make Benedick so abrasive and sour, particularly to his poor children. "
