A review by afestivalaparade
The Empathy Exams by Leslie Jamison

dark emotional reflective medium-paced

3.5

I would strongly recommend not listening to this book as an audiobook -- Jamison's writing deserves to be consumed slowly, with full attention. The audiobook format allows your focus to drift and lose the subtlety Jamison builds within and across essays. If you don't give the book the attention it deserves then her arguments feel blunt and overwrought; tuning in reveals more layered observations.
