This rather incoherent work by Russian anarchist philosopher Michael Bakunin is described in a way that he described his own life: a fragment. Rife with criticisms on Christianity and the technocracy, Bakunin presses communist values without fear of bordering extremism. Listening to this work is like walking through Bakunin’s disjointed mind; often cutting off and starting mid-sentence, including footnotes several paragraphs long as if his thoughts suddenly start to wander, as well as ending rather abruptly mid-sentence.

Entire words are dropped from the audio at times, making this extremely difficult to listen to. Nothing wrong with the book itself, just awful audio that randomly drops out.

Terrible Audio Quality

While I love Bakunin and his text, you can't lie that this audio is just weird to listen to. Narrator often has to repeat words.

Narrator reads in a silly voice.
