Failed State

As an avid listener of political memoirs, 'Failed State' was a revelation. Sam Freedman’s narration is nothing short of brilliant—his own voice reading his words makes the critique feel intimate and direct. The pacing is perfect; he manages to balance humor with raw honesty, making even the most politically dense topics digestible. However, there were moments where I wished for more concrete policy proposals instead of purely observational critiques. Overall, it’s a powerful indictment of modern politics that will challenge your views. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a candid and critical look at Britain's political landscape.
