About this listen

One of the most anticipated autobiographies of this generation, Arnold Schwarzenegger's Total Recall is the candid story by one of the world's most remarkable actors, businessmen, and world leaders.

Born in the small city of Thal, Austria, in 1947, Arnold Schwarzenegger moved to Los Angeles at the age of 21. Within 10 years, he was a millionaire businessman. After 20 years, he was the world's biggest movie star. In 2003, he was elected governor of California and became a household name around the world.

Chronicling his embodiment of the American Dream, Total Recall covers Schwarzenegger's high-stakes journey to the United States, from creating the international bodybuilding industry out of the sands of Venice Beach to breathing life into cinema's most iconic characters and becoming one of the leading political figures of our time. Proud of his accomplishments and honest about his regrets, Schwarzenegger spares nothing in sharing his amazing story.

Amazing. I wish I got the extended version!

Where does Total Recall rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Being the first of it's kind that I've listened to, I'm very pleased with the quality and layout of this product.

What did you like best about this story?

How it doesn't end, and when it does, you're stuck wondering "where's the rest of it, that can't be all that happened!"

Any additional comments?

I was never a huge Arnold fan until I listened to this. Now I find myself needing to do more research into his life. I have to listen again for items I missed the first time, and go over all the lessons he insist you learn from this book. The last chapter really brings it home, the first chapter really lets you know why he is the way he is.

only partly Ah-Nuld

great story, of course. unfortunately, Arnold only reads a small part of the whole. Otherwise, it was thrilling.

Schwarzenegger is an inspiration!

I really love this book! I found it not only intriguing and interesting listening to the man tell us about his life, but also there was an extreme amount of value and what he is telling us. his technique of visualization and following through is remarkable and its simplicity. and like he says anyone can do it. and it is quite funny when he describes his wife's eulogy for her father, when she states how father always taught her sons had a tree woman, and Arnold thought that she might have been referring to him, but maybe not. simply endearing Arnold!

Unbelievable!

At first I was reluctant to use my hard earned income to purchase this book because some of those dollars would eventually make it into Arnold's bank account. And I didn't think he needed any of my financial support! However, one of my mentors recommended this book because of a conversation we had regarding, "applied knowledge!" Having an auto-immune health issue my whole life has changed and it is a deep desire to be better today than I was yesterday! The bottom line is some of Arnold's last words, "Stay Hungery!"

Loved it from start to finish!

Wish it was fully narrated by Arnold himself but the narrator did a fantastic job as well. Powerful story of a great man. Thank you for the motivation Arnold!

Insightful

I will admit it: I came into this book because I wanted to hear Arnold Schwarzenegger narrate an audiobook. And while it was funny at first, I was soon hooked to the story of his rise to power. Stephen Lang, the primary narrator, covers most of the audiobook except the first and last couple of chapters.

arnold ... an inspiration

ive been an Aronold fan since my child hood .the book brought to light arnolds past and his rise to fame. i personally loved everysecond of this book . the stroy for me was enlightening . i look at arnold as someone to look up to and use his beliefs alot in my own life . dont judge this book before u listen to it and hear his own words thenjudge him. my only gripe was that the book was mainly read by someone else so some of the emotion was gone but yet i refused to let the readers voice bother me as i wanted to hear one of my idols story of his life. thank you Arnold for opening up to us your fans and sharing ur joys and sorrows with us !
