Overview

In the autumn of 2000, Hope Edelman was a woman adrift, questioning her marriage, her profession, and her place in the larger world. Into her stagnant routine dropped Dodo, her three-year-old daughter Maya's curiously disruptive imaginary friend. Worried about how to handle Dodo's apparent hold on their daughter, she and her husband made the unlikely choice to take Maya to healers in Belize, hoping that a shaman might help them banish Dodo, and all he represented, from their lives.

The Possibility of Everything chronicles the family's journey to an exotic place and a new state of mind. That magical week in Central America would transform Edelman from a person whose past had led her to believe only in the visible and the "proven" to one capable of faith in unseen forces and the mystery of healing.

Don't waste your time on this audiobook. It's the story of a bratty child and her parents on a trip to Belize. Nothing about this was entertaining or interesting.

I listened, why? It is well written, and well narrated- which are normally two major obstacles... but Im not sure what the point to the story was. If you are looking for a conclusion, a high point, a turn of events, a specific point of interest... well... you wont find it here. I'd sum up the book saying Life Happens, and Some Things will Resolve Themselves... there you go, now you dont have to listen. But well written, and narrated.
