A modern hero

Oliver is an excellent story teller, and the stories he tells are important, horrifying and compelling. Despite the heavy seriousness of the subjects - corruption, state violence, manipulation - he has a light touch and makes for satisfying reading.

Great Interview - Unnecessary Swearing

Really enjoyed this interview, which brings out the fascinating work of Oliver Bullough. His insights on Russian business is compelling, and I was thrilled to discover Money Land is available on Audible...expect it isn't. So lets get this straight, an Audible interview says the book is available, the Audible site and Twitter feed deny it's existence. This rather took the wind out of the sails of the interview.

The other element I didn't like was the necessary swearing - which is instigated by the interview and the interviewee copies. I thought that was pretty poor.

However - overall, its well worth a listen - the book sounds fascinating - I just wish Audible would get there act together and get it available for download.
