Say Nothing

I have been plowing through audiobooks this summer, but the one I cannot stop thinking about is SAY NOTHING by Patrick Radden Keefe. You might be familiar with Keefe’s writing in The New Yorker (where he is a staff writer) or with his recent hit podcast WIND OF CHANGE - he has a knack for turning his investigative journalism into epic, sweeping stories that often feel more like fiction. SAY NOTHING does all of that and more: it is a meticulously researched, nail-biting account of ten or so individuals from Belfast, Northern Ireland and their experiences during the 1970s Troubles. If you’re looking for a captivating, twisty-turny story that also happens to be a history lesson, I cannot recommend it highly enough.
