À propos de cet audio

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Multi-award-winning Hannah Gadsby broke comedy with their show Nanette. In this “enthralling” (The Washington Post) memoir, they take us through the defining moments in their life and their powerful decision to tell the truth—no matter the cost.

“Hannah is a Promethean force, a revolutionary talent. This hilarious, touching, and sometimes tragic book is all about where their fires were lit.”—Emma Thompson

A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: PopSugar, Vulture

“There is nothing stronger than a broken woman who has rebuilt herself,” Hannah Gadsby declared in their show Nanette, a scorching critique of the way society conducts public debates about marginalized communities.

Gadsby grew up as the youngest of five children in Tasmania, where homosexuality was illegal until 1997. After moving to mainland Australia and receiving a degree in art history, they found themselves adrift, working itinerant jobs and enduring years of isolation punctuated by homophobic and sexual violence. When Gadsby was twenty-seven, a friend encouraged them to enter a stand-up competition. They won, and so began their career in comedy.

Gadsby became well known for their self-disparaging humor, but in 2015, as Australia debated the legality of same-sex marriage, they started to question this mode of storytelling, beginning to work on a show that would transform their career and would become “the most-talked-about, written-about, shared-about comedy act in years” (The New York Times).

Harrowing and hilarious, Ten Steps to Nanette traces Gadsby’s growth as a queer person, their ever-evolving relationship with comedy, and their struggle with late-in-life diagnoses of autism and ADHD, finally arriving at the backbone of Nanette: the renouncement of self-deprecation, the rejection of misogyny, and the moral significance of truth-telling.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“For fans of Gadsby, [their] delivery on the page will delight just as it does on screen. [They] remain honest, with stories that draw laughter over situations that are always based in truth—harsh or otherwise.”Time

“A joyful read . . . Gadsby’s voice is intimate and close, and spending time with it is a lot like listening to a good friend relay a fascinating life story over a couple of pints at the bar.”Oprah Daily

“Similar to [their] groundbreaking comedy specials Douglas and Nanette, Gadsby’s memoir reads like a conversation with a longtime friend. . . . A can’t-miss memoir that will make readers laugh, cry, and everything in between.”Library Journal (starred review)

Soared to the top of my favourite Audible books!

I loved this memoir so much that I was actually bereft when it ended. Listening to Hannah tell their story was a joy in itself. There's not much comedy, but they toss in a little gem every so often. Their story is heartbreaking and, also inspiring. What Hannah endured is both deeply unjust and sad, but how they grew along the way is incredibly inspiring. I especially loved what was shared about their ADHD and Autism diagnosis and how they learned to set themselves up for success afterwards.

I absolutely loved the comedy show Nanette. I've watched it many times as I also feel the anger portrayed during that show, and I am grateful they followed up with a book to expand more on what led up to it. If you loved the comedy special, you won't be disappointed. Hannah is an amazing storyteller, and what they are sharing is invaluable in today's growing hostility towards the lgbtqia2s+ community. This was a valuable listen during pride month and will be folded into my memoir recommendations going forward. Thank you for sharing your story, Hannah!

No words...

I realize that this is less than helpful as far as a review goes, but I have no words. Read/listen to it yourself.

b.r.i.l.l.i.a.n.t

B.r.i.l.l.i.a.n.t memoir. I laughed and cried. I heard it as an audio book and it hit deeply because of Hannah's distinctive and emotive way of speaking. So many deep quotes, I gave up trying to bookmark them. I'll definitely buy a paper copy.

The writing style is unique. She draws parallels between what was happening in her world with what was happening in the US for example at the same time. It encourages the reader to do the same. What was happening in my life, you may find yourself wondering.

At the end of most chapters, there's a hilarious footnote.

It was also moving to know what it took for her to film that transformational special on Netflix. Transformational for her and her worldwide audiences.

An homage to the neurodivergent, the queer, the fat, the non-mainstream gender presenting, the survivors of sexual assault and trauma, to families of those who have these intersecting identities.

I am sad that this book is over. I am so happy that I live and breathe at the same time as Hannah Gadsby.

Easy choice. Highly recommend if you're open to listen to a story that is open and frank about deep seated trauma.

Nanette but elevated

I truly enjoyed how Hannah was able to describe her past and how it became shaped into her masterpiece of a show, and her being the narrator as well is a gift!
10/10 recommend listening/reading.

superb

Without even getting into the depth, sincerity and importance of the content and analysis, I will say that Hannah Gadsby is uniquely and wonderfully skilled at spinning a yarn. The structure, writing and delivery of this audio book are all stunning.
