The Long Hangover

Michael Page’s narration is both authoritative and accessible, making complex political theories digestible without losing depth. His performance adds a layer of warmth to the often chilly subject matter. The book excels in its vivid depictions of Russian life and politics, painting a nuanced picture that challenges simplistic narratives. However, at times, it can feel a bit too academic for casual listeners. The pacing is steady but occasionally lacks the urgency needed to capture the intensity of Russia's political climate. Still, it remains a compelling listen for anyone interested in modern geopolitical dynamics.
