Resumen del Editor

From New York Times bestselling author Naomi Wolf, Facing the Beast is a devastating, detailed account of wrongthink, deplatforming, and an unexpected political, personal, and spiritual transformation that followed during one of the most divisive times in American history.

In this uncompromising investigation into today’s most urgent issues, Naomi Wolf uses her own wildly politicized pilgrimage—from New York Times bestselling author and high-level Democratic consultant to a journalist cast out from the elite political and social circles she once moved through—as a stunning narrative framework that is both chilling and incisive.

Wolf’s sin? Doing the job that good journalists once prided themselves on: asking questions, challenging authority, and, during one of the most politically divisive moments in modern history, exposing the many failures of the public health response during the COVID-19 pandemic by chronicling the dangerous descent of our democracy into tyranny, censorship, and totalitarianism.

Unable to remain silent in the shadows and unwilling to collude with the mainstream, Wolf bravely covers topics that few other writers dare to address critically for fear of being deplatformed. Facing the Beast explores reproductive rights, medical freedom, the uncurious thought-policing of the “progressive” left, the Second Amendment, the criminal relationship between the FDA and Pfizer—Wolf’s clear writing repeatedly shines light in the dark corners of our fractured society.

A decades-long champion of free speech, freedom of the press, and the Constitution, Wolf found herself not only in the midst of a political rebirth but a spiritual transformation as well—one in which the events of the day could only be described in terms of good, evil, and a metaphysical quest on the nature of reality.

For fans of Matt Taibbi, Glenn Greenwald, and Bari Weiss, Facing the Beast is a fearless indictment of legacy media and the political class, as well as a brutal reminder that searching for and defending the truth can be dangerous.

Good but buries the lede

If you are clued in enough to want to read the book, the first 4 hours are not going to be new information for you. The interesting information comes from the Pfizer documents chapter onwards. That stuff is stunning.

An amazing account of the worldwide COVID debacle

I was glued to my iPhone listening to this book being so eloquently read. I’m grateful this book has been written and published and I pray many will read it and learn. I’m praying for our nation and the world, that we will become wiser, more understanding, loving and compassionate m, with God’s help. Oh how we need His help. Thank you Naomi Wolf!

A must read

I enjoyed her take on what had happened to the country. I appreciated the chapter in the Pfizer documents. I wish I could put at least that chapter in front of every American so they could see how we were all duped!!!

Excellent!

Thank you for having the courage and faith to stand your ground during that past 4 years and share your story.

Accurate coverage on the pandemic of totalitarianism.

I really liked the factual overview of the medical and governance crimes commited, which is still something most of the populus isn't vaguely aware of (for a number of reasons, including self-protection).

Very sharply written and the comparison with Nazi Germany '30-'33 is spot on. I totally agree with her conclusion that a society can't really heal, improve and move on, before some kind of accountability and justice has prevailed. Overal the book resonated very deeply with my experience, except for the mystical parts described in the final chapters.

As to her gradual move from "the left" to "the right" and her grand awakening... I can totally concur. I have made the same, inevitable "shift" after I discovered all the lies, manipulation and moralizing of legacy media and its pundits, although I think the society made a shift and I more or less remained the same, loyal to my values and principles.

An eleoquent, factual review of a living hell

I couldn't stop listening to this book. Naomi nails it as she describes the horrors a small group of people forced on humanity.... the personal, financial and historical ruin inflicted on us. This book has great detail, it's personal and it recounts all aspects of 2020 - 2023. More clarity and honesty than we can get must places today. Naomi apologized for not seeing it all in the beginning but shows how, with critical thinking and paying attention to things that don't match, seen right or are immoral can open one's eyes to what is really going on and then describes the beauty in the seeing... the connecting with others and all of nature. one if my favorite books!

This is a "Must Read/Listen"book

This is a GREAT book! It details and captures so many of the emotions of what we experienced with the COVID years. She is a wonderful story teller. This was a necessary book to document for history what really happened. I especially enjoyed her description of the 1st and 2nd Amendment, and how one can change their perspective on such important matters.

I always enjoy when the author reads their own book, but I understand sometimes its not possible. Having said that, I though Carolyn White did a really nice job.

Thank you Naomi Wolf for being on the front line of bringing us the truth.

Interesting!

Easy to listen to - thought provoking book. So much going on in this world- so much information- I wish everyone would listen to this book. Thank you Naomi for sharing the facts of so many things with us.

Compelling personal and political story.

Most of the information in this book was not new to me. The way it was presented mixed with her personal story was compelling. I had trouble putting it down.

The Finest Investigative Journalist of our Day

Thank God and the universe for ushering this fine woman into this world when we need her the most. There is no clearer example of someone who came here to fulfill a much-needed purpose and on their journey so exceptionally fulfilled it. This book is a fabulous work of art. It is critical, right now, that we spread the word and wake up as many people we can influence to help our journey out of this abyss. Help our loved ones neighbors friends and work associates to wake up to the truth because it will set us all free. Like the courageous author, they will find plenty of company who are openly sharing the truth. I awoke spiritually within weeks of this atrocity being visited on us and it completely changed my relationship with our creator and the universe. I believe this spiritual battle is as real as it gets. And I believe that this book will help in "ripping off the bandaid" so to speak which will enable more of us to become part of the solution. And that is what is needed for the future of humanity. Literally. Deep gratitude and thanks for this work by Ms. Naomi Wolf.
