关于此有声读物

Despite attempts to suppress its publication and the advertising ban placed on it, The President’s Daughter enjoyed bestseller rankings after its eventual publication in 1927. Written so that Britton could raise enough funds to support her (and Harding’s) daughter and thus argue for the true legitimacy of children born out of wedlock, this tell-all about the affair between a starry-eyed girl and the man who would eventually become the twenty-ninth president of the United States is still a fascinating and relevant read in the context of the Me Too era.

In Britton’s eyes, Harding’s a powerful, hometown hero she’s worshipped for years. In his eyes, she’s a darling waif he yearns to possess. Is she seduced by his power, his physicality, his being more than thirty years her senior? Is he drawn to her naïveté, her youth, her wide-eyed and deep trust? Britton lays it all bare in The President’s Daughter.

作者简介

Nanna Popham Britton (1896–1991) was an American secretary who was a mistress of Warren G. Harding, the twenty-ninth President of the United States. In 1927, she revealed that her daughter, Elizabeth Ann, had been fathered by Harding while he was serving in the United States Senate, one year before he was elected to the presidency. Her claim was open to question during her life, but was confirmed by DNA testing in 2015.

Anne Marie Lewis combined her knowledge and experience gained from her BA in the Great Books from the University of Notre Dame, her Master of Music from Northwestern University, and her many years of performing on stage in theater, opera, and musical theater with her love of listening to audiobooks while commuting to and from rehearsals, and began narrating audiobooks in 2018. She lives with her husband and four sons in Chicago.
