LATE BLOOMERS The Power of Patience in a World Obsessed with Early Achievement

Though his tone is gentle and his phrasing relaxed, Fred Sanders communicates invigorating urgency while narrating this intelligent audiobook. His steady approach and pleasing voice make it easy to absorb the author's awakening message: It's simply wrong to assume that success in life must begin early and that, past a certain age, we should not expect much of ourselves. The author is a compelling writer whose perspectives and research summaries embody a satisfying grasp of cultural history. He shows how obsessed we've been over the years with identifying high-achieving people in their youth and how we discard those whose talents need time to mature. This inviting audio will make listeners in their later years rethink how they want to spend their lives. T.W. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2019]
