RAGE, a remarkably current and informative audiobook about Donald Trump's presidency, is critical of the job he has done. 'Trump,' concludes its author, 'is the wrong man for the job.' Narrator Robert Petkoff's tone is conversational, and he doesn't attempt to mimic either the author or his subject, allowing the material to speak for itself. And what rich material it is, based on 19 interviews Woodward conducted with the president, along with current and past members of his inner circle, as well as a trove of documents. Of particular interest may be Trump's varied responses to COVID-19—but there are also insights into his views on China, North Korea, racial unrest, the men who once worked for him such as Jim Mattis and Dan Coats, and, of course, his own legacy. This is an absorbing audiobook that will keep listeners tuned in regardless of how much they think they know about the past four years.

Quotes

  • “Damning…Unlike most Trump tapes, Woodward’s actually tell us something new about the president, rather than just confirming what we think we already know.”

    — New York Times
  • “This revealing look at an embattled presidency facing a pandemic, racial unrest and a suffering economy…the book’s details have been explosive.”

    — USA Today
  • “Woodward’s prose offers readers that delicious, vicarious sense of being an insider, right there in the room with Bob, a witness to presidential sulks and boasts.”

    — Washington Post
  • “The most comprehensive and damning catalog yet of [Trump’s] failings in office.”

    — Los Angeles Times
  • “Stunning…arresting.”

    — NPR
  • “Even in a news landscape where it feels like nothing is shocking anymore, the first excerpts from the new Bob Woodward book still landed like a pair of hydrogen bombs.”

    — Vanity Fair
  • “The book possesses more than a patina of similarity to the famous televised interviews between David Frost and Richard Nixon, the president Woodward and Carl Bernstein brought down with their reporting on Watergate nearly a half-century ago.”

    — The Guardian (London)
  • “An essential account of a chaotic administration that, Woodward makes painfully clear, is incapable of governing.”

    — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
  • Trump is the first candidate for president to launch an October surprise against himself. It’s as if Nixon sent the Nixon tapes to Woodward in an envelope by FedEx.

    — Nick Confessore of the New York Times “Even in a news landscape where it feels like nothing is shocking anymore, the first excerpts from the new Bob Woodward book still landed like a pair of hydrogen bombs.
