Publisher's Summary

In the rubble of Hurricane Maria, Puerto Ricans and ultrarich "Puertopians" are locked in a pitched struggle over how to remake the island. In this vital and startling investigation, The New York Times best-selling author and activist Naomi Klein uncovers how the forces of shock politics and disaster capitalism seek to undermine the nation's radical, resilient vision for a just recovery.

Naomi Klein's dependable intrigue.

Interesting listen, and well narrated. My only complaints would be that at 1:43 minutes I would have loved to have heard more and learned more about this case study in disaster capitalism.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
