About this listen

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 that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt trapped in their own circumstances.

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 and misadventures she had reintegrating into society, and culminates in the as-yet-untold story of her return to Italy and the extraordinary relationship she went on to build with the man who sent her to prison. It is the moving saga of how she wrests back her own life from the grip of her story's notoriety and returns to the quiet 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 reveals 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 who has persevered through hardship.

Love it! Absolutely fantastic!

Amanda Knox is both courageous and gracious. This book is a must read for anyone traversing a challenge (doesn't have to be inherently negative).
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.

Very different than her first book

I loved her first book. It was captivating and inspiring. This is just a hodgepodge of liberal ideas veiled as some kind of bogus inspiration. There are some great parts to it, but overall a disappointment.
