'In my book, you will meet a little girl named Viola who ran from her past until she made a life changing decision to stop running forever . . .'

This is my story, from a crumbling apartment in Central Falls, Rhode Island, to the stage in New York City, and beyond. This is the path I took to finding my purpose and my strength, but also to finding my voice in a world that didn't always see me.

As I wrote Finding Me, my eyes were open to the truth of how our stories are often not given close examination. They are bogarted, reinvented to fit into a crazy, competitive, judgmental world. So I wrote this for anyone who is searching for a way to understand and overcome a complicated past, let go of shame, and find acceptance. For anyone who needs reminding that a life worth living can only be born from radical honesty and the courage to shed facades and be...you.

Finding Me is a deep reflection on my past and a promise for my future. My hope is that my story will inspire you to light up your own life with creative expression and rediscover who you were before the world put a label on you.

Recensies van critici

A mind-blowing and emotionally honest tale of survival against all odds. (Bernardine Evaristo)
A breathtaking memoir...I was so moved by this book. (Oprah)
It is startlingly honest and, at times, a jaw-dropping read, charting her rise from poverty and abuse to becoming the first African-American to win the triple crown of an Oscar, Emmy and Tony for acting. (BBC News)

I never sit down to write reviews for books or products. This one however is so carefully crafted, that I just have to tell you how much it touched me. Listening to Viola Davis telling her hero's journey, was such a wild ride that I was happy to participate in listening. Getting to know her path of growing up and impactful milestones made my eyes water more than once. Her ability to narrate the story in an amazing way, made the audiobook even more emotional.
It's such an amazing thing to listen to her story and see her as the remarkable person she turned out to be. So I recommend you give it a try and listen to what she has to say about life. I certainly took some notes. Cheers and have a good day.

Eines der besten Bücher! Erbarmungslos ehrlich und zauberhaft hoffnungsvoll zugleich, vorgetragen mit einer tiefen samtigen Stimme. Einfach nur gut und inspirierend.

Unfassbar gut!
