À propos de cet audio
New York Times reporters Jim Dwyer and Kevin Flynn rely on hundreds of interviews; thousands of pages of oral histories; and phone, e-mail, and emergency radio transcripts. They cross a bridge of voices to go inside the infernos, seeing cataclysm and heroism, one person at a time, to tell the affecting, authoritative saga of the men and women, the 12,000 who escaped and the 2,749 who perished, who made 102 minutes count as never before.

- 2005 Audie Award Nominee, Nonfiction (Abridged)
"A masterpiece of reporting." (The New York Times)
"The stories are intensely intimate, and they often stir gut-wrenching emotions....[Dwyer and Flynn's] reporting skills are exceptional." (Publishers Weekly)
"A fitting tribute to the people caught up in one of the great dramas of our time. And for people still haunted by the events of that day, reading 102 Minutes provides a cathartic release." (The New York Times Book Review)
"New York Times reporters Dwyer and Flynn have compiled an unbearably painful but indispensable account of what transpired inside the twin towers of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001." (Booklist)

Hard to describe…
It’s hard to say a book that describes the 102 minutes from the first plane hitting the towers to the 2nd tower collapsing, enjoyable but it was definitely interesting and informative. It covered allot of ground- some history on sky scrapers in general, communication issues between and within the police and fire department, and individual’s in the building both those who made it out safely and those who didn’t.
It’s such a tragic incident in history and should never be forgotten. I’m glad I listened to this well written book.

Very good detailed listen
Detailed accounts of those who survived and those who didn’t. A good read for more insight into what went on inside the towers

I'm conflicted.
I mean, after listening to this book, how can one say they "loved" or even "liked" this story. I mean...yeah, you get it. So this review isn't a review of the individual experiences recounted, but of how they were presented in this book. At least, for me, the large portion of the book was a description of the towers' engineering and its role in the resulting death count. Which, hey, maybe that is fascinating for some. Sure, it's interesting and needed to be part of the book, but it was a LOT of it. Then, the tales themselves ... I wish they were told from the survivor's perspective in first person. Describing what the saw and felt as if recalling it by hypnosis and with more detail (which, if pages and pages if technical engineering and stats weren't repeated numerous times throughout the book, would have been easy.).
The narrator was great. Thanks to all those brave survivors and emergency personnel who chose to tell their stories. That must have been very difficult.
