Something New Under the Sun

Marin Ireland’s narration is a standout feature in this audiobook. Her ability to convey the dark humor and sharp critique of Alexandra Kleeman’s writing adds an extra layer of depth. The story, set against the backdrop of environmental collapse and Hollywood’s corrupt underpinnings, feels both timely and deeply personal. However, at times the dense dialogue can be challenging to follow, despite Ireland’s efforts. Pacing could also use a bit more urgency in certain scenes, but overall, this audiobook is a compelling listen for those who enjoy literary fiction with a satirical edge.
