About this listen

Acclaimed actor Jeremy Renner narrates his gripping and inspiring story of a near-fatal accident and what he learned about inner strength, endurance and hope as he overcame insurmountable odds to recover, one breath at a time. This program includes a note written and read by his daughter, Ava.

“Renner’s description of his recovery is life affirming and just pretty incredible. His narration is particularly harrowing. There are occasional cuts to 911 calls on the day of the incident, and you can even hear Renner fighting to stay alive in the background. I’m of the mind that not every celebrity needs a memoir, but this one’s worth it.”—Vulture

"With audible emotion Renner navigates his reflections on life and death…Enhancing the audio are the original 911 interactions as the accident unfolded.”—AudioFile

Two-time Oscar nominee Jeremy Renner was the second-most-googled person in 2023—and not for his impressive filmography. His searing portrayals on film ranged from an Iraq-based army bomb technician in The Hurt Locker and a Boston bank robber in The Town to a crooked Camden mayor in American Hustle before he became heir to the Jason Bourne franchise (The Bourne Legacy). Amongst other iconic roles, he also captured hearts as fan-favorite comic book marksman Hawkeye in seven Marvel films.

Yet, his otherworldly success on-screen faded to the periphery when a fourteen-thousand-pound snowplow crushed him on New Year’s Day 2023. Somehow able to keep breathing for more than half an hour, he was subsequently rushed to the ICU, after which he would face multiple surgeries and months of painful rehabilitation.

In this debut memoir, Jeremy describes in blistering detail his accident and the aftermath. This retelling is not merely a gruesome account of what happened to him; it’s a call to action and a forged companionship between listener and author as Jeremy recounts his recovery journey and reflects on the impact of his suffering. Ultimately, Jeremy’s memoir is a testament to the human spirit and its capacity to endure, evolve, and find purpose in the face of unimaginable adversity. His writing captures the essence of profound transformation, exploring the delicate interplay between vulnerability and strength, despair and hope, redemption and renewal.

I must read or listen to book about life’s struggles, triumphs, and renewals. If this book does not give you a sense of how fragile life can be and how we should all look to be the best person we can be every day.

Personal victory of life he found

Hits you like an avalanche in a good way. The warning signs were all there from missing the plane by seconds to the highway being shut down to prevent Jeremy to not go any further.

We never know who an actor really is. The type of person they are. I’ve enjoyed watching Jeremy act and somehow could feel the good person he truly was beneath the character he played. This book shows the truth of his beautiful loving soul. It brought tears to my eyes, a smile to my face and love in my heart. Thank you Jeremy . God bless you in your continued healing and blessings for the beautiful life you have.

Having Jeremy read this is more of a 1st account story telling then a read.

I'm very touched by his strength and love for his daughter. Not that I'd want him to suffer and remember more but wish the book was a little longer
