About this listen

I, Lorna Tucker, have lived a life that most of you can't even begin to imagine...
The unflinching true story of one woman's fight to survive living on the streets of London - from Britain's most exciting filmmaker
'You need to read this' MICK JAGGER
A HAPPY PLACE BOOK CLUB PICK

I have lived on London's piss-soaked streets, I have lived with the sweet embrace of heroin, I have lived when I should have died. I have lied, I have thieved, I have stripped, I have tricked, I have loved, I have fallen, I have survived.

I could be your daughter, your mother, your lover - I could be you.

Come to hell and back with me.

From the first line to the last word, this audiobook held my attention like no other. The sheer honesty and peeled-back rawness of expression made the life held within utterly relatable.

Even though few of us have been through the extremity of the experiences described, this book makes the listener feel they are walking through the pages alongside the writer. Homelessness, addiction, grief, fights with personal demons: the writer leads us through it all skillfully and apparently effortlessly.

I love Tucker’s deadpan delivery; she expresses such depth of emotion through subtle inflections of tone and cadence. I finished the audiobook in two days and by the end of the story I was really rooting for the protagonist.

Ultimately, this is a story of hope, truth, and the strength of the human spirit. Beautifully done.

Moved me so much. You must read it!

'Bare', the physical book, isn't available here until May 20th. I got it on Audible. That, apparently was a stroke of good luck, because I now think that hearing the story in Lorna's silky smooth voice and elegant diction made the content more harrowing and real. Hopefully, this account of a childhood robbed will shed a bright light on how a lot of these traumas could be avoided. Awareness could lead to preventitive solutions.
Everyone should listen to this book. I, for one, feel strengthened from everything I learned from it. You are amazing Lorna Tucker
