1 year agoJust a recommendation. Say Nothing by Patrick Radden Keefe is also great.
I thought the books was great. It was a while ago when I read it and I’ve seen so much media about the sacklers I don’t know which is which now.
It is a tragedy and it left me feeling pretty hopeless. I can’t remember how it ends, were the sacklers pending trial when it was written? But Sackler’s aside, it shows the sort of systemic failing of the medical industry that you’re left feeling like this could all happen again.
It’s not the best written book but I liked the way Dune used history books to tell the story, giving you little hints of future events
