BLACK BUCK

What if, one day, a spontaneous decision plucked you from obscurity and challenged you to pursue a whole new life? In this audiobook, Darren provides his account of that exact experience. Zeno Robinson's narration is outstanding--he sounds likable and real, with the warm voice of a friend and the brisk pacing of an effective leader. When Darren leaves his barista job for a sales position at an Internet company, he finds himself the only person of color in the entire office, and this is just the start of his story. Robinson's confident delivery deftly captures the absurdity lurking in the contemporary workplace and spotlights the importance of discussions on diversity. This is an excellent performance of an appealing audiobook. L.B.F. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: FEBRUARY 2021]
