About this listen
From the Sunday Times best-selling author of The Pursuit of Happiness and The Moment comes a poignant and profound American love story. How long does it take to fall in love? For 20 years, Laura has been a good wife and a good mother. She's supported her husband through redundancy, she's worried about her son, she's encouraged her daughter.
She's stopped thinking about all the places she'd like to go and all the books she'd like to talk about. She's not unhappy, exactly. She's not that self-indulgent. As anyone would tell you, Laura is wonderfully constant, caring, selfless.
She's certainly an expert at putting on a brave face. But a chance meeting in a hotel lobby - and the five days that follow - remind Laura of the young woman she used to be - and the woman she could have become. Is it ever too late to have the life you wanted? Or do we owe it to ourselves to pursue the promise of happiness? From 'the absolute master of love stories with heart-stopping twists' (The Times), Five Days is a compelling novel about how life can change with one brief encounter.

Not my favourite of Kennedy's novels
Is there anything you would change about this book?
Five days...it felt like much longer! I was sort of pleased for the happy ending but almost past caring since the pace of the story was so slow.
Would you be willing to try another book from Douglas Kennedy? Why or why not?
Yes, because I've read them all so far.
What does Jennifer Woodward bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
A greater sense of the main character's bewilderment.
Do you think Five Days needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
No, it's sufficient by itself.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
