Book Review: Listening Well

 



Listening Well

Bringing Stories of Hope to Life

by Heather Morris

Pub Date 02 Aug 2022

 St. Martin's Press 

 Biographies & Memoirs 




I am reviewing a copy of Listening Well through St Martin’s Press and Netgalley:




Listening Well explores Heather Morris’s extraordinary talents as a listener.   A skill she used when she first met Lale Sokolov, the tattooist at Auschwitz-Birkenau and the inspiration for her bestselling novel..  Heathers ability as a listener led Lale to entrust Heather with his story, which she told in her novel The Tattooist of Auschwitz and the bestselling follow up, Cilka's Journey.




In Listening Well Heather tells the story behind her inspirational writing journey and the defining experiences of her life, including her profound friendship with Lale, and explores how she learned to really listen to the stories people told her.  A skill she believes we can all learn.



I give Listening Well five out of five stars!



Happy Reading!
