Book Review: On Tyrrany by Timothy Snyder
Title: On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century
Author: Timothy Snyder
Narrator: Timothy Snyder
Published: Random House Audio, 2017
Rating: 3.5 of 5
Page Count: 130
Total Page Count: 531,310
Text Number: 1946
Read Because: reasons obvious post-2024 election, audiobook borrowed from the Multnomah County Library
Review: On one hand, I appreciate how direct and uncompromising this is; it's common sense that feels less common, more challenging, when confrontational and supported by challenging antecedents. On the other hand, it saddens me that these bootlicking, moderate tendencies are relatively revolutionary. This is just a starting place, remarkable mostly for its brevity and accessibility.
