À propos de cet audio

"[Holter Graham] uses his deep, elastic voice to punctuate key ideas, and he speeds up and slows down to create tension...The result is a wonderful performance of a most important audiobook." — AudioFile Magazine

This program includes an author's note read by Michael Wolff

#1 New York Times Bestseller

With extraordinary access to the West Wing, Michael Wolff reveals what happened behind-the-scenes in the first nine months of the most controversial presidency of our time in Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House.

Since Donald Trump was sworn in as the 45th President of the United States, the country—and the world—has witnessed a stormy, outrageous, and absolutely mesmerizing presidential term that reflects the volatility and fierceness of the man elected Commander-in-Chief.

This riveting and explosive account of Trump’s administration provides a wealth of new details about the chaos in the Oval Office, including:

  • What President Trump’s staff really thinks of him
  • What inspired Trump to claim he was wire-tapped by President Obama
  • Why FBI director James Comey was really fired
  • Why chief strategist Steve Bannon and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner couldn’t be in the same room
  • Who is really directing the Trump administration’s strategy in the wake of Bannon’s firing
  • What the secret to communicating with Trump is
  • What the Trump administration has in common with the movie The Producers

Never before in history has a presidency so divided the American people. Brilliantly reported and astoundingly fresh, Fire and Fury shows us how and why Donald Trump has become the king of discord and disunion.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Holter Graham, a Baltimore native, actor and veteran audiobook narrator, delivers [this] truly bizarre tale of dysfunction in a composed voice. Where a less confident narrator might have allowed a smirking note to emerge, Graham maintains his poise, subtly picking up the narrative's mood in slight modulations of tone and unobtrusively freighted pauses." (Washington Post)

"If you think that bomb cyclones are unique to the weather, then listening to this audiobook will change your mind. This literary perfect storm combines a book the president wants to ban with a narrator, Holter Graham, whose energy and vocal clarity add fuel to the author's incendiary words.... The result is a wonderful performance of a most important audiobook." (AudioFile)

Fascinating and horrifying

Audio book version of this is recommended, as apparently the text version does contain grammar and even spelling errors that may be annoying. I picked this up on Audible and it's a fascinating and horrifying portrait of just how far the White House and the GOP have descended into chaos and incompetence in the service of self-interest. While it's generally agreed that Wolff has exaggerated and embellished a few points, there is SO MUCH detail here (and much of it he does have on tape) that the overall picture it paints still seems clear and believable.

Watching the Trump administration from the outside, it's been hard at times to determine if there's some bigger strategy at work, some conspiracy to subvert what remains of democracy into a full oligarchy, some deliberate attempt to undermine the institutions of the USA. What this book does very well is illustrate that there really is no plan, no conspiracy, so scheme; it's absolutely sheer incompetence and ignorance fueled by self-interest and greed. And I'm not sure which is more terrifying. Trump doesn't have any sinister agenda; he has no agenda at all, and nobody on the White House staff has any control over what he says or decides, and nobody remotely qualified will even accept a job in the White House at this point because it's such a horror show. The book describes a White House so disorganized that there is no interest in filling any position that isn't media-facing; visitors arrive, are screened by military security, and then are left to wander the halls because there's no staff to greet and escort them to meetings. Wolff himself managed to just invite himself in and make himself at home for months on end with nobody to question him. Internal factions fight and undermine each other and the goal of everybody with any agenda is to get the president to think the idea was his own so it might get done, while Trump himself has no interest at all in doing anything but getting nice coverage from the media.

I'm really not sure if I was more scared when it seemed as if the Trump presidency was a sinister conspiracy to undermine democracy in the US, or after reading this book when it is clearly utter chaos and incompetence at every possible level with no clear goals at all. But either way it was a very interesting listen and has cast a new perspective on the daily news.

You think you know, but you don't know

There were so many "You have got to be kidding!" moments in this book. I watch the news, read the internet/social media, check in on Twitter.... but, none of that compares to this!

It'sa must read!

The reading was perfect too, easy to listen to and absorb.

hard to stop listening!

Compelling to hear behind the scenes of what was reported. Bannon seems to be the source for 90%. I believe most of this book. It is confirmed what an attention hungry little weak man Trump is. Basically every bad decision had "Jarvanka" behind it! Highly recommend this one!

wow

The news about this book is an understatement. Unbelievable! The Trump Presidency is even worse and more chaotic than I ever imagined.

Entertaining but should be taken as fiction

I enjoyed the book a lot, but sadly it isn't far from what we've already heard. Trump seems to be a simpleton as much as a bully, and that simpleness is what makes him easy to manipulate. I thought the story and the book were very well written, and it was in some respects a sympathetic portrait of Trump and others around him as flawed human beings - which we all are. Unfortunately, he is profoundly unfit for the office.

Bon mais ...

Plutôt bien livré, cependant il y a certaines longueurs tout au long du livre. On a un peu l'impression que c'est du pareil au même entre chaque chapitre...

Il faut connaître la majorité des ''personnages '' pour bien aimé le livre,

Narration AAA très bien réalisée !

OUI : Pour les fans de politique américaine

Tremendous! As someone would say.

We think we know the story but not in such detail. History has never been so entertaining!

A Tawdry Romp!

Listened until the end. Intonation and pacing were spot on. Clearly spoken and enjoyable from an audio perspective.

The story itself; opportunistic, sultry in spots, and a sort-of connect-the-dots that fills in the WTF factor - whether archive accurate or not is not for me to determine.

Bottom line, I thought this was a fun book.

Enjoyable Read!

A clear and good insight into the current White House administration. I really enjoyed Michael Wolff's storytelling style. You could relive the experiences through his words.

All the chaos and drama you already imagined!

Well told, although you aren't all that surprised at the inner workings of the Trump White House, you still walk away surprised at the chaos and disfunction, the total lack of true Leadership is remarkable. A must read.
