Title: This Boy's Life

Author: Tobias Wolff

Narrator: Oliver Wyman

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 hrs 4 mins

Language: English

Release date: 2010-03-30

Publisher: HighBridge Company

Genres: Biography & Memoir, Literary, Memoir

Publisher's Summary:

First published in 1989, this memoir has become a classic in the genre. With this book, Wolff essentially launched the memoir craze that has been going strong ever since. It was made into a movie in 1993.

Fiction writer Tobias Wolff electrified critics with his scarifying 1989 memoir, which many deemed as notable for its artful structure and finely wrought prose as for the events it describes. The story is pretty grim: Teenaged Wolff moves with his divorced mother from Florida to Utah to Washington State to escape her violent boyfriend. When she remarries, Wolff finds himself in a bitter battle of wills with his abusive stepfather, a contest in which the two prove to be more evenly matched than might have been supposed. Deception, disguise, and illusion are the weapons the young man learns to employ as he grows up, not bad training for a writer-to-be. Somber though this tale of family strife is, it is also darkly funny and so artistically satisfying that listeners come away exhilarated.

Publisher's Summary:

My name is Jacob Dyer, Jake to my friends, and that blind guy over there to everyone else in the world who doesn’t know me. The sign on the antique frosted glass of my office door reads, “Dyer Straits Lost and Found.” We are not investigators, not lawyers, and not anything else that’s easy to describe. We simply stumble around and find things that people have lost when they have nowhere else to turn. At this point, I must say you would not be the first person, nor I’m sure the last, to think it strange that people retain a blind man for the express purpose of looking for something that they can’t find. The 'we' I speak of is my assistant Monica and me. We have only three rules in the lost and found business. one: always get paid. two: never get emotionally involved. three: avoid dangerous people. But then there was the time we successfully shattered all three of these commandments. Sometimes you just gotta do the right thing!

She begins by telling Forde's story: Late in the twenty-first century the island Republic has managed to survive a devastating worldwide plague by isolating its citizens completely from outside contact. For many years, approaching ships and planes are gunned down, refugees are shot on sight. No one is allowed in or out. The islanders are safe, but not free. Until a man named Adam Forde rescues a girl from the sea... Anaximander, we have asked you to consider why it is you would like to join The Academy. Is your answer ready? To answer that deceptively simple question, Anaximander finds she must struggle with everything she has ever known about herself and her beloved Republic's history. What is the nature of being human, of being conscious? What does it mean to have a soul? And when everything has been laid bare, she must confront The Republic's last great secret, her own surprising link to Adam Forde, and the horrifying truth about her world. Genesis is a provocative novel of ideas that forces us to contemplate the very essence of what it means to be human. You will want to finish it in one sitting, and you will want to listen to it again and again.
