あらすじ・解説

A number one Sunday Times best seller transformed into an illuminating, dynamic audiobook.

What happens when you take on the establishment? In Adults in the Room, renowned economist and former finance minister of Greece Yanis Varoufakis gives the full, blistering account of his momentous clash with the mightiest economic and political forces on earth.

After being swept into power with the leftwing Syriza party, Varoufakis attempts to renegotiate Greece's relationship with the EU - and sparks a spectacular battle with global implications. Varoufakis' new position sends him ricocheting between mass demonstrations in Athens, closed-door negotiations in drab EU and IMF offices, and furtive meetings with power brokers in Washington, DC. He consults and quarrels with Barack Obama, Emmanuel Macron, Christine Legarde, the economists Larry Summers and Jeffrey Sachs, and others as he struggles to relieve Greece's debt crisis without resorting to punishing austerity measures. But, despite the mass support of the Greek people and the simple logic of Varoufakis' arguments, he succeeds only in provoking the fury of Europe's elite.

Varoufakis' unvarnished memoir is an urgent warning that the economic policies once embraced by the EU and the White House have failed - and spawned authoritarianism, populist revolt, and instability throughout the Western world. Adults in the Room is an extraordinary tale of brinkmanship, hypocrisy, collusion, and betrayal that will shake the global establishment to its foundations.

A must-listen for anyone interested in current events and the delicate web of global economics.

批評家のレビュー

"Leighton Pugh narrates this work as if it were an unsolved mystery...In a voice of nuanced emotion, Pugh creates muted characters to paint a vivid picture of what the author was up against as he tried to save his country." ( AudioFile Magazine)

Enlightening

A bit one sided, but a very enlightening, thorough
account on Greece’s finance crisis.

A glimpse of a grim future

Words fail me to describe how this book manages to not only describe the fate of a state and its neighbours surrounding the Mediterranean ocean, but also how the acts of some threaten to destabilize not only the European zone, but that of the whole world should their wager collapse. A wager based on the enslavement of some people and their states, resembling that of an invading state.

However, I can also see how difficult it is for people to rise towards this invading power, since they do not come with guns and tanks, but with means to cripple a country's economy and shackle their politicians.

Hopefully this book will serve as at least an eye opener for some to take action towards the harm being done to democracy in our world today. Because we are alive, everything is possible.
