Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Claire Dederer’s performance in 'Monsters' is nothing short of stellar. Her narrative voice is clear and engaging, perfectly balancing the historical accounts with personal reflections. The pacing is impeccable, weaving through time periods and personalities seamlessly. While some might find the subject matter heavy, Dederer’s approach offers a fresh perspective on how we navigate art and morality today. A standout is her handling of Pablo Picasso's tumultuous relationship, where she expertly navigates the tension between creativity and cruelty. However, at times, the rapid-fire delivery can feel overwhelming, making some sections slightly challenging to follow. Overall, 'Monsters' is a must-listen for anyone intrigued by the darker side of artistic genius.
