À propos de cet audio
At the age of 20, Chris Gardner arrived in San Francisco to pursue a promising career in medicine. However, he surprised everyone and himself by setting his sights on the competitive world of high finance. Yet no sooner had he landed an entry-level position at a prestigious firm, Gardner found himself caught in a web of incredibly challenging circumstances that left him part of the city's working homeless with his toddler son. Motivated by the promise he made to himself as a fatherless child to never abandon his own children, the two spent almost a year moving from shelters, "HO-tels", and soup-lines.
Never giving in to despair, Gardner makes an astonishing transformation from being part of the city's invisible to being a powerful player in its financial district. Here is the story of a man who breaks his own family's cycle of men abandoning their children, a story that appeals to the very essence of the American Dream.
©2006 Chris Gardner (P)2006 HarperCollins Publishers, Inc.Ce que les critiques en disent
"Gardner is honest and thorough as he solidly depicts growing up black and male in late 20th-century urban America." (Publishers Weekly)

Highly Motivational and Relatable
I am a father of three boys and share some similar challenges as spoken of in this book. Reading Chris' story, although very sad and heart wrenching at times, is a huge motivator. That regardless of your circumstances, as long as you have the mental strength and determination and a very strong sense of responsibility the goals you have of achieving your successes are well within reach.
I gave an overall 4 stars because I would have liked to have heard the unabridged version. I'm curious as to how much of this great story I missed.
