Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

As I listened to The Brilliant Boy, narrated by Gideon Haigh himself, his voice was a constant thread connecting past and present. The narrative pacing is masterful, seamlessly transitioning from childhood anecdotes to political discourse. What sets this audiobook apart is its intimate look at Haigh’s formative years, making the listener feel like they’re right there with him on his journey. However, some segments felt slightly disjointed as they veered between personal and professional topics. Despite this minor critique, The Brilliant Boy remains a compelling listen for anyone interested in Australian political history through a deeply personal lens.
