Derek Thompson👍 Recommends
…recommending the audiobook version of a literary classic read by a narrator with distinctive voice
“The last book that I'm going to recommend is specifically an audiobook. The audiobook of Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy is, like, the trippiest possible— It's an extraordinary book that's basically like a sort of— if you haven't read it, like a sort of 20th century Dante explaining an absolutely hellacious experience of a bunch of people in the mid-19th century along the Texas-Mexico border. And the audiobook is, like—the guy who reads it has the most incredible, sonorous Southern accent.”
