What a book - so much time, effort, and deep care went into its creation and it is a gift to those who read it now and into the future. I listened to the audiobook, which now seems like the only possible way to experience this oral history. A 45-narrator cast reads the snippets from various people sharing their experiences in September 11, 2001. All who lived through 9/11, no matter how closely linked we were to the tragedy, have a story to tell and it is clear the author intended for readers to be able to truly understand what it was like to live through that day. It includes real recordings of emergency calls and presidential remarks. Truly powerful and something that I’m grateful to have read.
