FANTASY ISLAND Colonialism, Exploitation, and the Betrayal of Puerto Rico

by | Read by Sean Duffy

History • 11 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2019

This is a great, sad, and informative listen on the complicated history of Puerto Rico. Sean Duffy narrates Morales's scholarly research and personal story with skill, sharing it with just the right levels of enthusiasm and engagement. The story of Puerto Rico is at times tragic, but the story of Morales and his family is fascinating and inspirational. Duffy is up to the task as the audiobook switches from a history of the island to a history of the author's life. Duffy keeps the listener engaged throughout. One can't help but think the people of Puerto Rico have been given a raw deal. This an important and engaging listen. J.P.S. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2019]
