All My Mother's Lovers: A Novel Free Audiobook Download by Ilana Masad


“Now in order to understand, we ought to start with a few definitions. When I talk about motherhood, I don't mean the physical act of bearing a child. That's just one part of it. I mean something more fundamental and more general: that love is what mothers give their children—an unconditional love, a love without condition, an all-encompassing love that gives life meaning.”

Rebecca Lowman's voice is gritty and assertive, yet delicate and expressive, while Ilana Masad's voice is gentler and more feminine. They provide nuance to their respective characters with different tones and timbres.
