Summary

In his revealing autobiography, Michael Caine tells with unsparing honesty of his hard-fought journey from an impoverished South London childhood to Hollywood wealth and stardom. With all the easy charm and relaxed humour of a natural raconteur, he takes us behind the scenes of both his professional and private life.

wonderfully entertaining

This is the second book by MC I have listened to and, like the others, it's candid and entertaining

Very short but enjoyable. Caine is great.

Michael Caine's biography is well worth a listen. Well read, interesting and at times both funny and powerful.

Eye opening insight to Mr. Caine's poor backgroun.

Michael Caine's self-narrated Auto Biography makes all the difference to this audible book.

Highly recommend it. Unbelievable how down to earth this immensely successful A-Lister was and still is.

My wife and I listened to this from start to finish within a 280mile round trip in the car.

We hope there's another self-nareated Michael Caine auto-biography.

Straight to the point

Michael skips through this himself, and tells it as it is and as if he was in the pub talking to you.

Where's it all gone?

I read this book years ago, and wanted to do so again, but there's so much missing. Various things that I remember from the first read are just not here. Excellently read by the author though, just not enough.

As it says on the cover.

As expected an engaging story with very enjoyable narration. Could have been entitled "A fortunate life"!

Good but short!

Micheal Caine gives an interesting and touching review of his life up until his 58th year. When I bought this audio book I did 't realise it was abridged so it only lasts just over two hours which was a disappointment but it was an entertaining two hours.
