  • Minor differences form the book!

    I just tuned in to listen while reading , and I've noticed on page 78 , instead of "the Jews is the heir of the salve-baron" it was changed to "immigrants", and in the same chapter changed to "foreigners".

    Not sure if the audiobook is based on a different edition or not.

    Otherwise; it's a good audiobook, being read a bit faster than I'd hope.
