Filmmaker Michael Moore shares emails from his Web site, combining them into an audiobook. Multiple male and female readers bespeak the writers’ anger, sorrow, and profanity. All the correspondence is from U.S. service members, and all letters support Moore’s anti-Bush politics. The author reads a personal introduction, and a woman gives Moore’s short acceptance speech for his Oscar in 2004. A change of narrator every minute or so delivers pleasant variety, and the care taken to match the voice with each letter’s sender deserves praise. Still, the tedium produced by hearing five hours of disconnected paragraphs with the same message could have been lessened with a judicious abridgment.
