nila 's review for:
Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty
by Patrick Radden Keefe
challenging
dark
informative
reflective
tense
slow-paced
Such a well-organised and well-researched book. I usually struggle with these kinds of deep-dive documentaries, but the audiobook was easy to follow and very engaging. It's a disturbing read; Keefe weaves us through the history of the Sackler family that spans decades and how their family roots are twined through so many industries and aspects of our everyday lives. A very eye-opening listen/read
