Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Leighton Pugh’s narration is nothing short of brilliant; he captures the subtleties of Varoufakis's words with a precision that elevates each chapter. The pacing is well-balanced, allowing for moments of intense drama and quiet reflection alike. Despite its political subject matter, this audiobook feels intimate, almost like overhearing a conversation between friends. However, there are occasional sections where the rapid-fire dialogue can become somewhat disjointed. Nonetheless, Pugh’s performance makes 'Adults in the Room' an essential listen for anyone interested in modern politics and economic policy.
