Narrated by Viola Davis
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 but also 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. We are forced to reinvent them to fit into a crazy, competitive, judgmental world. So I wrote this for anyone running through life untethered, desperate and clawing their way through murky memories, trying to get to some form of self-love. 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, a promise, and a love letter of sorts to self. 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.

Rigtig rørende og inspirerende fortælling om hendes liv, og så er hun mega god til at læse højt, at man får svært ved at lægge den væk.

Fantastisk oplæst. Stærk historie. Jeg havde stor respekt for Viola Davis som skuespiller, men nu endnu mere hvor jeg ved hvilke oplevelser der har formet hende. Et vindue ind i et hårdt liv; en voldsom barndom, racisme og fattigdom - og hårdt arbejde som skuespiller.

Bogen er meget interessant og godt fortalt – til tider går det dog for meget op i hendes etniske ophav og om hvor meget hendes hudfarve har farvet hendes liv.

En så barsk fortælling at det føles som en roman, og samtidig så inspirerende og spændende at jeg ikke kunne stoppe med at lytte. Viola Davis må godt læse alle lydbøger for mig - hendes vilde talent skinner igennem også i oplæsning.
