CAN'T EVEN

This author-narrated audiobook offers a thorough examination of the millennial generation and its struggles. Anne Petersen, a journalist and a millennial herself, debunks the common and insidious refrain that millennials are simply too lazy, selfish, and entitled to be successful. She explores decades of cultural, political, and technological shifts that led to their being overworked, underpaid, and held back by social problems that make it nearly impossible to achieve upward mobility. As narrator, Petersen offers a compassionate and supportive voice that enlivens her compelling research and firsthand accounts from other millennials. Millennial listeners won't find easy solutions here; however, Petersen's audiobook offers solidarity and a vital understanding of their shared difficulties.
