The River Has Roots by Amal El-Mohtar is a novella that’s turning heads for its lyrical prose and spellbinding narration, blurring the line between language and spellcraft. Sara Hillis and Jacob Shymanski unpack the power of grammar, the intimacy of music, and the haunting beauty of sisterhood—all wrapped in a remarkable audiobook performance. If you love audiobooks that sound like poetry and feel like magic, this one’s for you.
