Publisher Description
In the rubble of Hurricane Maria, Puerto Ricans and ultrarich “Puertopians” are locked in a pitched struggle over how to remake the island.
In this vital and startling investigation, New York Times bestselling author and activist Naomi Klein uncovers how the forces of shock politics and disaster capitalism seek to undermine the nation’s radical, resilient vision for a “just recovery.”

“This short audiobook packs as potent a punch as the hurricanes that devastated the island of Puerto Rico in 2017…Narrator Erin Bennett approaches this work in a clear, authoritative voice that reflects the no-nonsense tone of Klein’s words. Bennett takes control immediately, pausing effectively and pacing herself so that we can both understand and analyze the book’s message. Even more memorable, she maintains a measured approach even when the message becomes fiery.”
