Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to 'The Day the Bubble Burst' felt like being on the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange on that fateful October day. David Colacci's narration is nothing short of extraordinary. He effortlessly shifts between characters, from the confident, ambitious speculators to the anxious, bewildered investors. His voice, rich and resonant, brings the era's opulence and optimism to life, making the subsequent crash all the more devastating. The only criticism is the occasional info-dump, but it's a small price to pay for such a vivid, engaging history lesson. This isn't just an audiobook; it's a time machine.
