WASTELAND by Oliver Franklin-Wallis, read by Chris Harper
Chris Harper has his work cut out for him in Oliver Franklin-Wallis’s chilling audiobook about waste around the globe. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss the challenge of maintaining a reportorial tone amid the horrifying reports of toxic mountains of garbage. He keeps the right pace and cadence as he recounts the author’s discoveries, including an island of plastic three times the size of France floating in the Pacific, corporate mismanagement, the idiocy of fast fashion, and more. He captures the author’s urgent call for change in these profiles, stories, and facts.
