À propos de cet audio
The harrowing true story of abduction and survival from the courageous young woman who lived it—now the subject of a Lifetime original movie, I Am Elizabeth Smart.
In this memoir, Elizabeth Smart reveals how she survived and the secret to forging a new life in the wake of a brutal crime. On June 5, 2002, fourteen-year-old Elizabeth Smart, the daughter of a close-knit Mormon family, was taken from her home in the middle of the night by religious fanatic Brian David Mitchell and his wife, Wanda Barzee. Elizabeth was kept chained, dressed in disguise, repeatedly raped, and told she and her family would be killed if she tried to escape. After her rescue on March 12, 2003, she rejoined her family and worked to pick up the pieces of her life.
With My Story, Elizabeth tells of the constant fear she endured every hour, her courageous determination to maintain hope, and how she devised a plan to manipulate her captors and convinced them to return to Utah, where she was rescued minutes after arriving. Smart explains how her faith helped her stay sane in the midst of a nightmare and how she found the strength to confront her captors at their trial and see that justice was served.
In the years after her rescue, Smart transformed from victim to advocate, traveling the country and working to educate, inspire and foster change. She has created a foundation to help prevent crimes against children and is a frequent public speaker. She and her husband, Matthew Gilmour, now have two children.

On January 14, 2018, a 17-year-old girl climbed out of the window of her Perris, California home and dialed 911 with shaking fingers. Struggling to stay calm, she told the operator that she and her 12 siblings - ranging in age from two to 29 - were being abused by their parents. When the dispatcher asked for her address, the girl hesitated. "I've never been out," she stammered.

Elizabeth was able to tell a terrible story with occasional humor thrown in the mix which balanced the horror of her story.
However, there were some areas that showed a very judgemental side. When they were in California, walking around on Thanksgiving, she commented that "there seemed to be a lot of homeless people walking around. Or maybe Mitchell just attracted people like him." There is a huge difference between someone who is down and out or struggling with mental illness and a kidnapping pedophile POS.
At a party, a boy, aged 19, with blue hair and piercings said she had "beautiful eyes." Elizabeth is clad in a robe with a veil covering her head to toe. This party goer cannot tell her age but she says "did he even know I was 14? Judging from the looks of him, I would say it wouldn't have made a difference."
As we know, Elizabeth is a mormon. Throughout the book she repeats that god didn't get her kidnapped and god would never allow a child to go through this, but god WAS going to get her home. The magic glass of water was humorous but not in the way she intended.
Overall, it was a read I enjoyed because she doesn't lack details. I'm always left wanting more details with most true story books and this is where she doesn't disappoint. She is a very good narrator too.
Detailed and sad
