The astounding yet true rags-to-riches saga of a homeless father who raised and cared for his son on the mean streets of San Francisco and went on to become a crown prince of Wall Street.

At the age of 20, Chris Gardner arrived in San Francisco to pursue a promising career in medicine. However, he surprised everyone and himself by setting his sights on the competitive world of high finance. Yet no sooner had he landed an entry-level position at a prestigious firm, Gardner found himself caught in a web of incredibly challenging circumstances that left him part of the city's working homeless with his toddler son. Motivated by the promise he made to himself as a fatherless child to never abandon his own children, the two spent almost a year moving from shelters, "HO-tels", and soup-lines.

Never giving in to despair, Gardner makes an astonishing transformation from being part of the city's invisible to being a powerful player in its financial district. Here is the story of a man who breaks his own family's cycle of men abandoning their children, a story that appeals to the very essence of the American Dream.

Reseñas editoriales

Andre Blake tells the true story of Chris Gardner, a Milwaukee African-American who escaped from his ex-convict mother and violent stepfather by joining the Navy and then becoming a San Francisco stockbroker, only to wind up as a homeless single father of a 19-month-old son. Read by the street-smart Blake, the story's colorful language and no-holds-barred humor make it captivating. It's a happy-ending morality tale that shows how ironclad determination can break negative cultural cycles and lead to financial and personal rewards. Beleaguered men from all dysfunctional circumstances will be inspired by the well-told story of this authentic American life. Few will forget it once they hear it.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Gardner is honest and thorough as he solidly depicts growing up black and male in late 20th-century urban America." (Publishers Weekly)

Well worth the read. Lots of insight into Chris Gardner’s life where he just lays it all out there and keeps it real in a transparent yet comical manner. He gives you those extra details not found in the movie as he walks you through his perilous journey in which he eventually overcame with triumph! A must listen / read!

Awesome details not seen in the movie!

Is this the right book? I thought to myself at the beginning. it seemed nothing like what the movie appeared to be. To be fair, I have yet to see the movie, just clips on YouTube.

None the less, I gained valuable knowledge and vision ona personal level. I believe we can all benefit from this reading.

Empowering

This book was great, 100x better than the movie, but remember Chris Gardner and his incredible story is the 'exception' not the rule. Despite all good intintions, things could have gone horribly wrong. Chris Gardner did the best with what he had, fortunately things went more right than wrong. Hopefully he gave back to those who helped him.

Great audio book

This is honestly the best book I've ever red. I decided to read it since I love the movie, but the book is even better. It's super inspirational, and for someone who is kinda scared about the future, because she doesn't know what she wants to do, it calms me down. This book gives way more stories than the movie did and the voice over is great too!

Best book I've even red

lived their lives like Chris did this world would be so much better off. It's not a black/white/red/yellow or pink thing it's a REAL, TRUE LIFE THING.

It's so sad that more people don't have this kind of determination to make their lives better.

Way to go Chris!!!! People need to copy this determination and resolve to make their life better.

If more people.....
