About Asphodel

In Asphodel, Daphne finds herself far from home, much like the resilient plant of the same name that flourishes in distant lands. At nearly 17, she seizes her first taste of freedom, yearning to escape the painful reality of her fathers indifference and the haunting absence of her mother, who vanished in the South of France. As the butchers daughter from Oxford Street, she navigates a world where she can manipulate her friends choices and indulge in a fantasy romance with a nameless man. But returning home forces her to confront the harsh truths of her past and strive for her fathers elusive love, all while seeking her place beside her cherished older half-sister. Will Daphnes journey lead her to the acceptance and love she craves, or will her past mistakes come back to haunt her? - Summary by Stav Nisser.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
