Episode description

Bunner Sisters by Edith Wharton audiobook.

Genre: drama

In a quiet, down-at-the-heels corner of turn-of-the-century New York, sisters Ann Eliza and Evelina Bunner scrape together a living by running a tiny notions shop. Their days are measured in pennies, thread spools, and careful routines, and their world feels small but safe - until a seemingly simple decision pulls them into the broader city and the risky hopes it offers. When they befriend the gentle, struggling clock repairman Herman Ramy, the sisters find their hard-won stability tested by desire, loyalty, and the ache of wanting more than survival. Edith Wharton turns this modest setting into a sharp, compassionate study of the costs of kindness and the quiet violence of poverty, where every gift carries a weight and every choice can reshape a life. As aspirations rise and misunderstandings multiply, Ann Eliza must navigate the tender bond she shares with Evelina and the painful question of what love requires - for a sister, for a friend, and for oneself.
