Amanda Knox
Amanda Knox reflects on her world-famous confinement in an Italian prison—and her return to an "ordinary" life—to reveal hard-won truths about purpose and fulfillment.
Amanda Knox spent nearly four years in prison and eight years on trial for a murder she didn’t commit—and became a notorious tabloid story in the process. Though she was exonerated, it’s taken more than a decade for her to reclaim her identity and truly feel free.
Free recounts how Knox survived incarceration, the mistakes she made, the misadventures she had reintegrating into society, and culminates in the untold story of her return to Italy—and the extraordinary relationship she's built with the man who sent her to prison. It is the gripping saga of what happens when you become the definition of notorious, but have quietly returned to the matters of a normal life—seeking a life partner, finding a job, or even just going out in public.
In harrowing (and sometimes hilarious) detail, Amanda tells the story of her personal growth and hard-fought wisdom, recasting her public reckoning as a private reflection on the search for meaning and purpose that will speak to everyone persevering through hardship.

But Amanda’s candor, her honest reflection and desire for peace make the story powerful. Her ability to meet a man who will never admit he is wrong, for his own conscious or for his faith in a system that most likely needs repair who knows, in incredible. I wish her peace, I wish that the world would understand that she is innocent. That the facts, as black and white as they are, indicate that she is another victim of Rudy Guede.
An incredible listen by a woman who is doing so much good, who is reminding us again and again to look at the facts, the evidence, rather than the painted narrative given by the media. Who leads a life of kindness, and a deep understanding of humanity that most do not possess. Though I wish she could have the life of anonymity so many of us take for granted, the world is a more better, kinder place with her voice and heart having the power and sway that they have.

Amanda shares her story, from her perspective, in her own voice, and with no apologies in this book. It felt like watching a well made, based on real events, movie.
More importantly, for any casual reader who might not yet be familiar with Amanda Knox, Knox is not aimlessly venting, she's genuinely trying to help by sharing her story, in the most constructive way possible.
I am not gracious (when unmerited)... Without hesitation, as a student in italy myself, I know first hand that's just italy and italians for you. italians (even in the media) go as far as to claim that Knox did not grow up rich, and that she had a foster father, trying to rob her, publicly, of a pretty wholesome childhood, as if to say that her life was ruined anyways, or as an excuse for why she might be eligible as a suspect (just because they have nothing tangible on her)... I think that's even more insidious than their degenerate defamations. But that is the authentic italian mentality; externalise, project, deflect, obfuscate, lie, lie and lie some more. Wouldn't surprise me if Knox's italian roommates played a huge role in defaming her, especially to the cops (out of pure pathetic tribalistic envy, and due to the trauma they must* have incurred by living in an extremely chauvinistic society).
NB. Only thing I cannot get behind is Knox's fondness of the Beatles and Harry Potter.
P.S. To not end up settling for a chump like Mr. Robinson, choose to study in Germany, or even France. Best darn advice anyone will ever give you.
Love it! Absolutely fantastic!
