A Barack Obama Favorite Book of the Year.One of the 10 Best Books of 2021 — The Washington Post, Amazon , Slate, Vulture, People, Entertainment Weekly “Explosive” — Washington Post “A tour de force” — Financial Times “Patrick Radden Keefe, one of the top narrative nonfiction authors of his generation, offers an engrossing and deeply reported book about the Sackler family…A great American morality tale” — TIME (Best Books of 2021 So Far) “This is no dense medical tome, but a page-turner with a villainous family to rival the Roys on Succession, and one where every chapter ends with the perfect bombshell” — Esquire (Best Books of 2021) "We were completely bowled over as a group of judges by Patrick Radden Keefe's Empire of Pain. By its moral rigour, its controlled fury, its exhaustive research, the skillful writing, the bravery it took to write it. Above all, though, by its sheer propulsive narrative energy. This is an exceptionally important story Keefe has mined in Empire of Pain, but what impressed us most was the skill with which he has told his jaw-dropping tale, and how immersive and unputdownable he has made the telling. This is journalism as outstanding literature, and what we have here is a future classic." — Andrew Holgate, chair of judges, Baillie Gifford Prize 8-part podcast WIND OF CHANGE, a wild story about Cold War espionage and 1980s hair metal, produced by Pineapple Street Studios, Crooked Media and Spotify.
