FASCISM: A WARNING

Former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright knows fascism when she sees it. Her personal look at this recurring global political trend takes listeners back to her early childhood, when she witnessed some of the consequences of fascism in Czechoslovakia. Known for her frank manner and direct approach, Albright brings these traits to her performance. Both qualities make her a strong narrator for this serious work. In an interesting departure from her formal persona, she shares insights about her private life all the way back to her teenage years in an American high school. Her experiences as a diplomat serve her well as a narrator--she is confident, steady, and engaging. M.R. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2018]
