Cody Dahler Audiobooks

The title does the introducing here. The State of This! is a phrase of weary exasperation, and our catalogue files it under comedy and society, which between them map the territory well enough: the world as it currently is, addressed with a raised eyebrow.

That pairing of shelves is a tradition in itself. Satire works by taking the news seriously enough to be annoyed by it, and the comedy arrives in the gap between how things are described and how they actually feel. A title with an exclamation mark in it is not planning to be neutral.

Beyond that, honesty is the better service. This is a new arrival under Cody Dahler’s name and our data on it is still thin, so rather than invent a picture we would rather point you at the work.

The State of This! is very newly listed with us. The recording details, running time and narrator among them, are still to be confirmed, and no listener ratings have been gathered yet, so there is nothing to report on that front and no sense in pretending otherwise.

What can be said is where it sits. Comic non-fiction with a political edge, the sort of listen that suits people who want the day’s absurdities named out loud rather than analysed at length.

The page will fill out as the details arrive. In the meantime, see what is available below.
