SECONDHAND by Adam Minter, read by Daniel Henning

A fascinating account of the industry of reuse, running the gamut from local thrift stores to Japanese vintage shops to used-goods enterprises in Ghana. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Jonathan Smith talk about the mystery of what happens to our unwanted, discarded, and donated stuff. Daniel Henning is a capable narrator who is easy on the ear, and he always sounds both interested and educational. It’s a lively production that will stick with listeners, inviting them to consider—or reconsider—their choices as consumers. Published by Dreamscape.
