Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas Editorial Team

As someone who's had their fair share of encounters with addiction, I found myself completely engrossed in 'The Double Life of a High-Functioning Alcoholic'. Benjamin Powell's narration was the perfect fit for the story, bringing a realism to the character's struggles that kept me listening late into the night. Kane's writing is both powerful and poignant, highlighting the stark contrast between Dave's outward success and his internal turmoil. The pacing was excellent, with the narrative ebbing and flowing in a way that reflected the unpredictability of addiction. While some listeners may find the content distressing, I believe this audiobook offers a vital, unvarnished look at a topic often shrouded in secrecy. It's a must-listen for those interested in biographical fiction or anyone looking to understand the reality of addiction.
