Editor's Review ★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Brian Sutherland's narration is the true star of 'Milk!,' giving each chapter a smooth, informative cadence that feels like sipping on a cool glass of milk after a long day. Kurlansky’s writing is brisk and engaging, weaving together historical facts with personal anecdotes to create a narrative as dynamic as the story itself. However, some sections feel slightly rushed, particularly when delving into more technical aspects of dairy science. Despite this minor quibble, 'Milk!' remains a compelling listen that will leave you with newfound respect for a beverage so simple yet profoundly complex.
