A Dark Satire of Tradition, Fame, and Survival in 1855 America
In Yesteryear, Caro Claire Burke documents the sudden displacement of Natalie Heller Mills, a wealthy modern influencer, into the brutal reality of 1855. Accustomed to a carefully curated life supported by hidden staff and modern appliances, Natalie wakes up in an unfamiliar version of her farmhouse where her children are strange and her husband is a competent farmer. Stripped of her empire, she is forced to endure the grueling physical labor of the nineteenth century, hauling firewood and washing clothes by hand. The narrative provides a close look at the harsh realities of historical womanhood, as Natalie attempts to determine whether she is the victim of a ruthless reality show, time travel, or something far more sinister.
Why You’ll Love This Audiobook
Caro Claire Burke's narrative is rooted in a sharp, biting examination of fame and gender roles, and Rebecca Lowman's narration brings an essential authenticity to this speculative thriller. Lowman expertly navigates the stark contrast between Natalie's privileged modern persona and the grim desperation of her nineteenth-century survival, grounding the listener in the character's growing panic. This 13-hour performance is a significant choice for listeners seeking a gimlet-eyed, fast-paced critique of the grand performance of womanhood.
