WAKE-UP CALL The Political Education of a 9/11 Widow

by | Read by Kristen Breitweiser

Biography & Memoir • 6 hrs. • Abridged • © 2006

Breitweiser's childhood as the daughter of a mayor made her avoid politics from an early age. Her law career ended when she married her husband. She accepted his political viewpoints . . . until he was killed in the World Trade Center. The beginning of Breitweiser's book is written passionately and is read by the author in a rush. Then she settles in. Her voice strengthens and calms, and her passion and urgency unite as she describes how a group of young widows takes on the most powerful politicians in America to find justice, achieve an unbiased 9/11 Commission Report, and continue to fight for our country's security. Breitweiser's reading is as unpolished as her strategies; both work in this candid audio. S.W. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB/ MAR 07]
