About this listen

In this compelling memoir, Jane Hawking relates the inside story of her extraordinary marriage. As Stephen's academic renown soared, his body was collapsing under the assaults of motor neurone disease, and Jane's candid account of trying to balance his 24-hour care with the needs of their growing family is inspirational. This is a book about optimism, love and change that will resonate with listeners everywhere.

At times hard to listen to Jane Hawkings is at all times, refreshingly honest. This is a no-holes barred and revealing telling of a complex relationship. Awe inducing, not only for the life lived but for the skilful story telling.

This is a wonderful story depicting human attitudes towards life, and how people can raise to all the challenges life can bring. I loved the fact it is built from the side of the wife and companion of an recognised personality. Brilliant and touching.

A beautiful story

This was not quite what I expected, even though I have seen the movie awhile back. As with every book that's been turned into the movie, there are so many layers that are missed out. It just shows that without her dedication, Stephen could have been far less known.

Interesting
