Tom Sturridge was born on December 21, 1985 in London, England. He is a Tony-nominated actor, who is best known for his roles in Far from the Madding Crowd, On the Road, Pirate Radio, and Being Julia. Sturridge grew up surrounded by the entertainment industry as his father is director Charles Sturridge and his mother is actress Phoebe Nicholls. He made his professional acting debut as a child in 1996, playing Tom Gulliver in NBC's Gulliver's Travels, directed by his father and co-starring his mother. His big break came in 2009, after being cast as Carl, one of the leading roles in Richard Curtis's comedy The Boat That Rocked (released under the title of Pirate Radio in the States) opposite the likes of Bill Nighy, Rhys Ifans, and Philip Seymour Hoffman. Sturridge made his London stage debut in September 2009, playing William in Simon Stephens's Punk Rock at the Lyric Hammersmith, which led to him winning the Critics' Circle Theatre Award for Best Newcomer. In 2013, Tom debuted in the critically acclaimed Orphans, opposite Alec Baldwin and Ben Foster. He was nominated for Best Performance By An Actor In A Leading Role at The Tony Awards for his performance.

In 2015, he played God in the Young Vic Theatre's stage adaptation of Franz Kafka's The Trial and went on to star as Bobby (opposite John Goodman and Damian Lewis) in David Mamet's American Buffalo at the Wyndham's Theatre in the West End. He also starred as Sergeant Francis Troy in 2015's Far from the Madding Crowd. Following his turn as Henry VI in the BBC/PBS television series The Hollow Crown in 2016, as 2nd Lt. Hibbert in Journey's End and as Lord Byron in Mary Shelley in 2017, Sturridge returned to the Great White Way to star as Winston Smith in the Broadway premiere of George Orwell's 1984 stage adaptation, playing the Hudson Theatre from May 18 through October 8, 2017, starring opposite Olivia Wilde and Reed Birney. In 2018, he played Jake in Sweetbitter on the Starz network and in 2019, he starred in Velvet Buzzsaw in a cast led by Jake Gyllenhaal and Rene Russo. He would collaborate with Gyllenhaal again around the time of the film's release, making his Off-Broadway debut for the Public Theater in Sea Wall/A Life.

I am so emotional that it's hard to find the right words. It's just beautiful.

Brilliant!

I enjoyed it although it was very sad and I didn't know if there was a message or moral.

Sadness, fatherhood, questioning

Enthralling stuff. The ups & lows in how the stories are told & revealed catches you & keeps you captive till it ends. It all comes to a head at the very right time it should, when it lets you go on & onwards, to contemplate on it all of life & death. Brilliant, all round.

Warning
Child death.
Why must we read about this? I wish I never accidentally read about another child’s death. It is too difficult for me.

This was very powerful and compelling. The narration was excellent in both stories.
Thank you!

Compelling

This is an emotional ride. It will make you cry. It will make you think. And it will make you call all those you love, and tell them, in this moment, I love you.

Give it a listen!

Although I’m grateful to audible for giving out free books every month I could not make it through this VERY short book. After listening to some of the best readers of all time these ones reading this book was making me want to stick chopsticks through my eardrums.

Not my cup of Tea

Like 2nd story much better than 1st. The 1st story was hard to understand and not just the accent. Sometimes the words just didn’t make sense. The story was good but not the telling

Give a 5 to the 2nd story

This is the best Audible Original I’ve ever downloaded. Moving content and poetic texts flawlessly performed. I am immediately relistening to it.

Wow!
