SUM: Missing (Kerry Fox) / Pantheon

by David Eagleman

Two stories from Tales from the Afterlives by David Eagleman.

In 'Missing', read by Kerry Fox, what we call God turns out to actually be a married couple.

In 'Pantheon', read by Nick Cave, we learn that there is not a single God, but many, and each rules a separate territory.

In SUM, David Eagleman entertains 40 fictional possibilities of life beyond death. With wit and humanity, he asks the key questions about existence, hope, technology and love. These stories are full of big ideas and bold imagination.

This release is one of 20 pairings of readings from the audiobook, which assembles a stellar cast of narrators who bring the scenarios of SUM brilliantly Gillian Anderson, Emily Blunt, Nick Cave, Jarvis Cocker, Jack Davenport, Lisa Dwan, David Eagleman, Noel Fielding, Kerry Fox, Stephen Fry, Clarke Peters, Lemn Sissay and Harriet Walter.
