À propos de cet audio
Fonda divides her "life so far" into three "acts", writing about her childhood, first films, and marriage to Roger Vadim in Act One. At once a picture emerges: a child born to the acting legend Henry Fonda and the glamorous society princess Frances Seymour. But these early years are also marked by profound sadness: her mother's mental illness and suicide when Jane is 12 years old, her father's emotional distance, and her personal struggle to find her way in the world as a young woman.
By her second act, Fonda lays the foundation for her activism, even as her career takes flight. She highlights her struggle to live consciously and authentically while remaining in the public eye as she recounts her marriages to Tom Hayden and Ted Turner, and examines her controversial and defining involvement with the Vietnam War. As her film career grows, Fonda learns to incorporate her roles into a larger vision of what matters most in her life, and in the process she wins two Academy Awards, for Klute and for Coming Home.
In Fonda's third act, she is prepared to do the work of a lifetime, to begin living consciously in a way that might inspire others who can learn from her experiences.
Surprising, candid, and wonderfully written, Jane Fonda's My Life So Far is filled with universal insights into the personal struggles of women living full and engaged lives.

Love it but it needs an audio edit
I loved this book, Jane is such a captivating storyteller and narrator. You are drawn into her life and feel like you are standing beside her through all of it.
It really needs another edit to remove the many times there is a 5-15 second repeat of the audio. There are about a dozen spots in the book where this happens and is distracting.

Excellent!
What an astounding life. Jane Fonda had to overcome an awful lot to get to where she is now. I listened to the unabridged version for 20 hours (and in her own voice–what a treat!) and I now have a much clearer image of the strength of this woman.

Loved her book!
I truly enjoyed this book! Especially that Jane read it herself. What a story!! It kept me captivated all the way through. I listened to it on my walks and would get excited to go walking.

WOW!!! Love, Life and Redemption.
What an awe inspiring book and well narrated by Jane Fonda. She sure has given me lots to consider for when I write my own story. Ms. Fonda is very relatable with her very open and complex life. Thank you.

Flawed remembrances from a brilliant actor
Conveniently Jane leaves out pertinent details. Why for example does the story of her purported $100 million divorce settlement from Ted Turner get usurped by a tear jerker tale of living in her daughter’s guest room? Or how did she manage to do all that loping around the ranch on her Arabian horses despite needing hip and knee surgeries? How did she cure herself of bulimia? How could she rightfully call herself a pioneering feminist when she positioned herself in the shadow of men in her life? Why did self deprecation and insecurity cloud every single chapter (that’s more a question for her editor)? All that said, Cat Ballou remains my favourite movie of all time. Jane Fonda is a brilliant actor.

Iconic
A treasure for every woman. Wise, vulnerable, self aware, and funny. Loved it. Her narration is perfection.
