Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to 'I and Thou' was like having a conversation with a wise, patient friend. Lescault's narration is steady and reassuring, perfectly suited to Buber's philosophical musings. He masterfully navigates the text's density, breaking down Buber's ideas into digestible pieces. The pacing is excellent, allowing time to reflect on each concept before moving on. However, some listeners might find the repetitive nature of the 'I-It' vs 'I-Thou' dichotomy slightly monotonous. Overall, this audiobook is a treasure trove of insight, beautifully presented by Lescault.
