In late 2014, Arundhati Roy, John Cusack, and Daniel Ellsberg traveled to Moscow to meet with Edward Snowden. The result is a series of essays and dialogues in which Roy and Cusack reflect on their conversations with Snowden. In these provocative and penetrating discussions, Roy and Cusack discuss the nature of the state, empire, and surveillance in an era of perpetual war, the meaning of flags and patriotism, the role of foundations and NGOs in limiting dissent, and the ways in which capital but not people can freely cross borders.

Very Misleading
Revisado: 10-16-20
This is NOT narrated by Arundhati Roy and John Cusack. That is the first disappointment. And because it’s not narrated by them, this becomes very disjointed and confusing. And there is very little with Snowden. And it seemingly abruptly cuts off and you are left going “W T HECK?”
I was expecting so much more and am very disappointed.

In November 2014, 13 members of the Biden family gathered on Nantucket for Thanksgiving, a tradition they had been celebrating for the past 40 years; it was the one constant in what had become a hectic, scrutinized, and overscheduled life. The Thanksgiving holiday was a much-needed respite, a time to connect, a time to reflect on what the year had brought, and what the future might hold. But this year felt different from all those that had come before.

Great book from a great man
Revisado: 08-07-18
I was really excited to listen to this book once I found out that Joe Biden narrated it and he did not disappoint - this was such a great listen and really made me feel like I knew just a little bit more of the personal life of the Biden's. Joe's love of God and his family and his country really shines in this book and when he talks about Beau, you cannot help but tear up as you listen to his voice, full of love, catch and you hear the tears in his voice.
I highly recommend this audiobook to anyone - and if you are a parent yourself, you will not see politics, you will just see a man who loves his children so very much.
