Could be life-changing

Revisado: 05-15-19

This worked fabulously for me on many levels.

First, it got me back into audio books. I tried them years ago, and they were generally horrific. For me nothing will kill wonderful put together words quicker then someone who deosn't know how to read them out loud. So, to have the voice of Alfie or Alfred Pennyworth telling you all this stuff is pretty awesome! As a sidenote, he does not sound like he's 85, it's a marvel to hear!

Secondly, I'm a big movie fan, and have always appreciated Michael Caine's work, so this title was also relevatory in terms of the movie world in general, and his career and work in particular.

And finally, the gems of wisdom he imparts - some familiar, some entirely new - are hugely vaulable, for any young aspiring artist, but even for older people such as myself who may need new ideas or a refresher course on how to sustain yourself through any phase of life.

Yes, you will hear little technical glitches. The odd passage edited together that sounds like parts were recorded on different days, and occasionally you'll miss a word or two due to recording technique, diction or accent. But it's a long book, and it's Michael freakin' Caine, for chrissakes! If you must hear some word or sentence over again, you can always slow it down to 75% and laugh at how drunk he sounds.

But seriosuly, this title succeeds on many levels, and it made my four-hour drive zip by. In fact, I started listening to it even in my hotel room and whenevr I got back in my car, it was that captivating!
