About this listen

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Expectation by Anna Hope, read by Vinette Robinson.

Hannah, Cate and Lissa are young, vibrant and inseparable. Living on the edge of a common in East London, their shared world is ablaze with art and activism, romance and revelry – and the promise of everything to come. They are electric. They are the best of friends.

Ten years on, they are not where they hoped to be. Amidst flailing careers and faltering marriages, each hungers for what the others have. And each wrestles with the same question: what does it take to lead a meaningful life?

EXPECTATION is a novel of the highs and lows of friendship – how it can dip, dive and rise again. It is also about finding your way: as a mother, a daughter, a wife, a rebel. Most of all, it explores that liminal space between expectation and reality, the place – full of dreams, desires and pain – in which we all live our lives.

Like a warm hug from a friend

Expectation by Anna Hope is as sharp as it is profound and humane... Vinette Robinson's snuggly voice hugs the narrative of the book like a good old cardigan on a winter's night. The following quote sums up the essence as well as the plot of the book in few words:

“You must keep hold of your friendships, Lissa. The women. They’re the only thing that will save you in the end.” - Anna Hope, Expectation
