Now, this is a book. It takes big themes of love, loss, existence etc. and folds them so intricately and so neatly into this little story. Beautifully and gently written, and it was a pleasure to just go along with the tale without knowing where I'd end up.

It's funny and poignant and uplifting. I listened to the audio (thank you to Netgallery for an advanced copy), and it is perfectly narrated

Many thanks for giving me the chance to listen to this wonderful book read by Johnny Flynn. Just brilliant.

Isaac’s wife has died and he is standing on a bridge above freezing water thinking he cannot go on. Then he hears a scream and discovers Egg. Who or what is Egg and why is he here?

A book well worth listening to as Isaac tries to find a way forward. Quite moving and relatable at times. Read or listen and enjoy.

Thank you so much to Headline Audio and NetGalley for an advance reader copy in exchange for an honest review.

Isaac and the Egg is one of, if not the most stunning book I've read so far this year. Bobby Palmer is an incredible writer, he has a very true talent that radiates throughout this book.
The story is intense, it had me speechless upon finishing, with tears escaping my eyes. This is a book that will stay with me forever.

I have been lucky enough to listen to the debut novel Isaac and the egg by Bobby Palmers on audiobook and I have to say it is such a beautiful novel which is perfectly narrated by Johnny Flynn with his lilting tones that suited it so well, in fact and I rarely think this but I’m not sure I would of resonated with me so much if I had read it. When Issac comes across Egg in the woods he really doesn’t know what Egg is but he takes him home and it seems that he has arrived just when Isaac needs him. The novel deals with grief in such a touching way that you can not help rejoice at Isaac & Egg and their burgeoning relationship and the heart warming ending. This story will stay with me for a long time.
