The narration is flat and dull. The story was just a slog through darkness. There really was no reflection or deeper understanding from the author. No levity or levels. I returned the title two hours in because it was two hours of monotonous droning with no forward action.

Flowery and poetic writing and an engaging story. The world is beautifully built. I was worried since there was a review that mentioned racism that perhaps the story was problematic. In reality the story is set in and after apartheid in South Africa. Of course the characters mention race and prejudice. Context is key.

This book isn’t narrated, it’s performed. There’s a ton of ineffective background and transitional music. It’s like an audiobook of a coloring book and not in a good way. I do find it interesting that he ruined his audiobook by being nervous and overcompensating after spending so much time talking about growing out of that habit. There’s a reason there are no 16 hour movies or concerts, that’s too long to be in the direct line of fire of a person who always has to be “on.” There was no room for the listener to engage in the material and interpret it. The presentation overshadowed the words.

If you have tinnitus or any type of sound sensitivities beware.

For whatever reason most paragraphs/chapters are delineated by an alarmingly loud chiming sound that lingers.
