Unabridged Audiobook
a vapid, incurious and aggressively upbeat look at Las Vegas. there is no dark side in this book - literally no mention of gambling addiction, poverty, sexual exploitation, not a single story that ends in loss or failure. instead, chapter after chapter, it's one sunny triumphant portrait after another loaded with so much florid gushing prose that it reads like a brochure for the Las Vegas Tourism Board. eventually, the read/listen becomes pure tedium.
