A FIGHTING CHANCE

by | Read by Elizabeth Warren

Contemporary Culture • 11.25 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2014

This book could be subtitled “The Making of a Populist” as Elizabeth Warren describes her journey from struggling homemaker to U.S. senator (Democrat, Massachusetts). Ultimately, it was her interest in bankruptcy law and its impact on everyday people that propelled her onto the national stage. Warren narrates this memoir herself, and, as a polished political speaker, she delivers the material well. She’s especially good at projecting emotions: Her anger at the insensitive credit industry is palpable. And her sadness over the death of her father is wrenching. The flow of the book is hurt slightly by the chapter subtitles, which interrupt the narrative when listening. However, this minor weakness does not blunt Warren’s powerful call to action.
