À propos de cet audio

Winner of the 2024 Audie Award for Autobiography/Memoir

THE NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER

The renowned and bestselling memoir—written with “insight, truth, and passion” (Sir Ian McKellen)—from iconic, beloved actor and living legend Sir Patrick Stewart.

From his acclaimed stage triumphs to his legendary onscreen work, Sir Patrick Stewart has captivated audiences around the world and across multiple generations in a career spanning six decades with his indelible command of stage and screen. No other British working actor enjoys such career variety, universal respect, and unending popularity, as witnessed through his seminal roles—whether as Captain Jean-Luc Picard of Star Trek fame, Professor Charles Xavier of Marvel's X-Men hit movie franchise, his more than forty years as part of the Royal Shakespeare Company, his unforgettable one-man show adapted from Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol, or his comedic work in American Dad!, Ted, Extras, and Blunt Talk, among many others. Now, he presents his stunning memoir, a revealing portrait of a driven artist whose astonishing life—from his humble beginnings in Yorkshire, England, to the heights of Hollywood and worldwide acclaim—proves a story as exuberant, definitive, and enduring as the author himself.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“I read this book in a state of wonder, not just for the author’s gifts as a nuanced storyteller and sharp observer, but for those other remarkable gifts, of intelligence, sensitivity, wit, intuition, self-awareness, and élan that were bestowed on him when he came into the world—all of which he has freely shared with us so long and so beautifully; and finished reading in a state of deep gratitude for the gifts, and the gift, of Patrick Stewart.” —Michael Chabon

“Patrick’s early life is a Dickensian tale of domestic violence and misfortune, transformed by chance and some good folk into the actor internationally admired and loved. He writes as well as he acts, with insight, truth, and passion. Another Stewart Triumph!” —Sir Ian McKellen

“There is so much to say about Sir Patrick. He is an amazing actor, great to look at, really funny, and up for anything. He is a kind man…compassionate and sensitive….but, as you will find when you read the book, his greatest asset as a human being is the fact that he is so completely and unapologetically himself.” —Whoopi Goldberg

I just want to give this man a hug. The story is relatable, although I am not an actor or anything close. I only watched star trek occasionally with my father. Patrick, has a way with words I hope to find as I mature. Wonderfully entertaining book. Another job very well done sir! Thank you!

Motivational and eye opening. Splendid.

Patrick's retelling of his life is quite a sincere one. Even when there's conflict or items out of line with modern standards, he's happy to relay that. His complicated relationship with his father is a little surprising he still holds honouring him so close. He's also fairly vague but owns up to his affairs. All said though, he is very dutiful in detailing how and why much of his life happened. I've been quite pleased with his story and being led by him through the journey. You can truly hear how sincere he is in each moment of the telling.

a very sincere memoir and telling of a human story

I loved listening to Patrick. Growing up as a poor but proud lad, his adventures were plentiful and amusing. 70 years of Shakespeare had me enjoying every moment of Patrick's glowing stories of his life. Thank you for sharing your life with us Sir Patrick Stewart! ❤️

Such an interesting Shakespearian acting career.

Only way to enjoy this book! It’s wonderful hearing this beloved man tell his own story, warts and all. I also enjoyed his mispronunciation of certain names etc. Interesting that they left that in, that he, this Shakespearean icon, is actually not perfect in his enunciation.

Hearing his story in that unmistakable voice

Patrick Stewart, I enjoy you even more.

I knew you had an extensive background in Shakespeare's work. it was soothing to hear you read some of his works.

What I didn't know was some of the actresses and actors you worked. Some who had been in the business for a while, and the new up and comers.

I didn't know some of your early movie work. I definitely knew you from TNG, series, and movies. I
was so excited to see a new Picard series, and I'm with you doing another Picard update.

Thanks for sharing your life with us. Now off to see if I can find your audio on The Christmas Carol.

Happy Listening, everyone

What an interesting life

It feels like a privilege listening to him talk about his life and all the turns it has taken. Patrick Stewart has a lovely way with words and is a fabulous storyteller. This is the first time I feel so happy about choosing an audiobook over a physical book.

Perfection
