The narration is fantastic and gives the writing a different voice, especially since it is literally in your ears. Many of the most powerful lines still struck me as I listened to the audio book.

I don't intend on reading this book again so I don't know if you are willing to own a book that won't have "replay" value. That said, I did highlight and comment on several sections in my kindle version, and do enjoy books with great and thought-provoking quotes.

Final answer: either/or. Audio book narration is great and I highly recommend. Physical book is worth owning if you think you'd like to refer back to it again, or to re-read, or to lend to others.(less)
