À propos de cet audio

From the bestselling author of Jurassic Park, Timeline, and Sphere, comes a deeply personal memoir full of fascinating adventures as he travels everywhere from the Mayan pyramids to Kilimanjaro.

Fueled by a powerful curiosity - and by a need to see, feel, and hear, firsthand and close-up - Michael Crichton's journeys have carried him into worlds diverse and compelling - swimming with mud sharks in Tahiti, tracking wild animals through the jungle of Rwanda. This is a record of those travels - an exhilarating quest across the familiar and exotic frontiers of the outer world, a determined odyssey into the unfathomable, spiritual depths of the inner world. It is an adventure of risk and rejuvenation, terror and wonder, as exciting as Michael Crichton's many masterful and widely heralded works of fiction.

For Michael Crichton, being a Harvard-trained physician, the author of two bestsellers, and a movie director is not enough. It is, he resolves, time to travel. From swimming with sharks in Tahiti to psychic experiences in the American desert, Crichton records his exhilarating quest through the familiar and exotic frontiers of the outer world.

I enjoyed the book and the narration by Christopher Lane.
Each chapter of the book is a short story about medical care and Harvard, trips to the bottom of the sea and to the top of Kilimanjaro, personal experience in filmmaking, book writing and self studying, open minded perspective on science, religion and more.

A brilliant story about life, travels, self study

What an interesting and complex man was Crichton. This autobiography takes the listener atop mountains under the waves and into the writer’s consciousness.
I am very happy that I found it on Audible. Christopher Lane brings the character to life with his appropriate voicing.

A very good listen
