Story
A New York Times Top 10 Book of the Year and National Book Award finalist, Pachinko is an "extraordinary epic" of four generations of a poor Korean immigrant family as they fight to control their destiny in 20th-century Japan (San Francisco Chronicle). In the early 1900s, teenaged Sunja, the adored daughter of a crippled fisherman, falls for a wealthy stranger at the seashore near her home in Korea. He promises her the world, but when she discovers she is pregnant - and that her lover is married - she refuses to be bought.

Story
In this irresistibly imagined belowstairs answer to Pride and Prejudice, the servants take center stage. Sarah, the orphaned housemaid, spends her days scrubbing the laundry, polishing the floors, and emptying the chamber pots for the Bennet household. But there is just as much romance, heartbreak, and intrigue downstairs at Longbourn as there is upstairs. When a mysterious new footman arrives, the orderly realm of the servants’ hall threatens to be completely, perhaps irrevocably, upended.

Publisher's Summary
From the fertile hills of a tiny village near Jerusalem to the elegant townhouses of Georgetown, Three Daughters is a historical saga that chronicles the lives, loves, and secrets of three generations of Palestinian Christian women.
Born in rural Palestine, just before the dawn of the 20th century, Miriam adores her father and is certain his love will protect her, but she soon finds that tradition overrides love. Uprooted by war, Miriam enters a world where the old constraints slip away with thrilling and disastrous results. Miriam's rebellious daughter, Nadia, is thrilled with the opportunity for a modern life that her elite education provides. But when she falls in love with an outsider, the clan reins her back with a shocking finality. Nijmeh, Nadia's daughter, is an only child and the path her father, the sheik, sets for her is fraught with difficulties, yet it prepares her for her ultimate journey to America, where she finds her future.
Each woman, in her own time and in her own way, experiences a world in transition through war and social change... and each must stretch the bounds of her loyalty, her courage, and her heart.

3 Generation Saga of three women - so captivating
Where does Three Daughters rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I thought that the book was very captivating. It introduced me to thinking patterns that are clearly different than mine. The author manages to bring these ladies into your hear in a subtle way and you can identify with them. I would give the book a A+
Who was your favorite character and why?
Nijmeh - see below

Any additional comments?
Palestine from the 1890s until the mid 1950s.
Three generations of Arab Christian daughters each with their own heartaches and secrets
.
Miriam is strong, traditional, smart, and enticed by the opportunities that wars (yes, multiple) bring to her as a woman in her country. Although her marriage is arranged, she and her husband form a marriage partnership that works for them. However, Miriam falls in love with another man and begins a relationship that could put her in real danger. This part is a bit frustrating, yet enlightening. Miriam realizes that leaving her husband is not an option, and you will see what she ends up doing.
Nadia, Miriam's daughter, is rebellious. Although rebellious and wanting to be a free spirit, she ends up marrying a man from her tribe. See what happens to her free spirit and how her relationship to Miriam changes. Nijmeh is her daughter.
Nijmeh's story was my favorite. She is innocent and naive, but at the same time tough and smart. In preparation for her role as next in line when the Sheikh, her father dies, she learns to live on her own in the desert. Nijmeh falls in love, but her father disapproves and intervenes. This will not sound right to our western minds, but continue reading. Through a controlled circumstance, Nijmeh ends up marrying a doctor whose family is from her tribe, and then moves to America. Once Nijmeh is in America,we begin to see the real Nijmeh emerge.
The story of each of the daughters is different than the story that their families know. I enjoyed how the author allowed us to see what other characters in the book were thinking. Some of the descriptive paragraphs were a little long for me, but overall I really enjoyed this book.

Set in the middle east the author made the country, tradditions, characters and story line come to life. I don't want to give the plot away so I'll just say the book kept me interested from the very beginning all the,way till the last sentence.
if your on the fence take a leap over and enjoy the journey you will be glad you did.

Get ready...
Get ready for a ride of a time in your life. Three Daughters hooked my interest in the most surprising way. I am more inclined to read (or listen) to adventure stories. But the way Karen Peakes read the portion of this book as offered, I realized an invitation was being offered to remember life as the most belittled adventure of all. She offered a most delicious read to a book the was so well written that her appreciation of Saah Baehr's story telling was an honored responsibility. The journey I was taken on I could not pack for. Three Daughters had placed me in three generations of distance and time that rewarded my attention with introductions to amazing women. As I experience my own life I find it full with women of courage, substance, love, forgiveness, understanding and acceptance. To know these women exist in places where my feet may never touch ground is not merely transporting but identifying. There are many things I am thankful for in my lifetime. Reading this book or hearing this book read by this reader, has become one of them.

Started out well, then pornography
If you're looking for pornography then this book is for you. I listened to most of this book, but then the descriptions for the sex got way out of hand. It was an interesting story, but the pornography ruined it for me.

Could have been Better...
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I loved Karen Peakes as a narrator; emotive, great dialogue and accents. Great performance! As an AUDIO book, it has a lot to recommend it, but as a BOOK, it will likely appeal to women who like a lot of soap opera with their historical fiction.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
You couldn't. You would spend 24 hours listening to it. The first part, in particular, is riveting, the second part still held my interest, but the incredibly graphic sex scenes and coincidences in the third part were a bit too much to swallow...
Any additional comments?
This book started out with SO much promise. I don't regret reading it, particularly the first half or so, but the second half was MUCH less atmospheric and interesting. Karen Peakes elevated this book; a less competent narrator would have made me give up...

Generational saga set in Palestine and the USA
The first paragraph of the publisher's summary is an excellent short description of Three Daughters: "From the fertile hills of a tiny village near Jerusalem to the elegant townhouses of Georgetown, Three Daughters is a historical saga that chronicles the lives, loves, and secrets of three generations of Palestinian Christian women." The story is set in the last half of the 19th century. It's a good, but not close to great, contemporary fiction novel. There are multiple gratuitous sex scenes that add nothing to the story. In retrospect the 23 hours spent listening to this book could have been better spent listening to good mysteries and thrillers.

Entrancing book with fantastic narration
A truly engaging story which was brought alive by some fabulous narration (the best I've come across in an audio book).
Wonderful, rich characters and stunningly written backdrop. Only quibble were the sudden changes of personality experienced by some characters, later actions seemed inconsistent.

It was like listening to soft porn at times
All the women in the story started off strong then all felt weak at the knees over some bloke and you know the rest. Lots of sex scenes if you like that kind of thing. Overall to me a disappointing experience. Could have been so much better. There were elements to the story that I did enjoy but lacked any kind of substance.

Would you consider the audio edition of Three Daughters to be better than the print version?
I liked it like a decent, reliable friend that is benign presence in you life. I enjoyed the lengthy and enjoyable journey and felt engaged in the lives, loves and losses.

What happened to the author half way through the book, lost momentum or inspiration?
Had the potential to be a really great story but completely lost its way and ended up being simply boring with poorly drawn characters. Kept asking myself what happened to the author about half way through.

Strange...
The story actually has very little of the historical background I was expecting, there is lots of drama, and odd erotic scenes in the middle of a otherwise very serious story on traditions etc. I found myself bound to finish and understand what would happen, but sometimes just felt odd and forced.
