A review by melanna
Bourdain: The Definitive Oral Biography by Laurie Woolever

reflective slow-paced

2.0

I have a vague idea who this guy is. I’ve never read his books or watched his shows. I’ve read a lot of biographies and memoirs of people I don’t know and often find them fascinating. This one I think was more written for the fans. I didn’t really care. And the style of writing, which is all the people who knew him sharing a couple sentences at a time to build a narrative brought in way too many characters. I hated that. The audio at least made it easier to track since they read their own words. 
I think I’ll read his actual book and I’ll like him more but this didn’t do it for me.
