Summary

A la edad de veinte años y después de haber salido de la Marina, Chris Gardner, llegó a San Francisco para continuar una carrera prometedora en la medicina. Considerado un hijo prodigio de la investigación científica, sorprendió a todos y a sí mismo estableciendo su punto de vista en el competitivo mundo de las finanzas. Sin embargo, apenas había entrado a una posición de gran nivel en una empresa de prestigio, Gardner se encontró atrapado en una red de circunstancias increíblemente difíciles que lo dejaron como parte de los ciudadanos sin hogar y con un hijo pequeño. Motivado por la promesa que se hizo a sí mismo de nunca abandonar a sus propios hijos, los dos pasaron casi un año moviéndose entre refugios, moteles, comedores públicos, e incluso dormir en el baño público de una estación de metro. Gardner nunca cedió ante la desesperación e hizo una transformación asombrosa pasando de ser parte de la ciudad pobre e invisible a convertirse en un miembro de gran influencia en su área financiera. Más que un libro de memorias del éxito financiero de Gardner, esta es la historia de un hombre que rompió el ciclo de su propia familia en contraste con hombres que abandonan a sus hijos. Legendario, triunfante e increíblemente honesto, este libro evoca a héroes como Horatio Alger y Antwone Fishe, y apela a la esencia del sueño americano.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Very impressed on all fronts

Where does En busca de la felycidad [The Pursuit of Happiness] rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

After listening to this book I would have to give it 7 stars becuase I gave the film five. It is a fascinating story - in fact two films could very well have been made from this book. It is an audio book that I will listen to over and over again (and it has really improved my spanish!!). It is read very clearly by Bob Borquez (with excellent English pronunciation also!). I am extremely impressed with the app also (very user-friendly and could not ask for any improvements.)

Who was your favorite character and why?

Sin lugar a dudas, Chris. Tiene tantas cualidades tales como la perseverancia, paciencia, imaginacion, tenacidad entre muchas otras. Una infancia desafiante, y TAMBIEN una adultez dificil. Este hombre es un experto en el Aprecio.

Which character – as performed by Bob Borquez – was your favourite?

Otra vez, Chris.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

In one sitting??! 12 hours?! As brilliant as the book is I could not manage that! However, I have listened to the entire book about 3 times so far.

Any additional comments?

I have told many of my friends about not only this book but also this Amazon company. I think there will be more and more demand for audiobooks in the future as people like myself who spends hours looking at screens all day want to just close their eyes in the train, commute etc and open your ears!! These days it is very hard to impress me as there is so much choice and activity but this is one product that clearly stands out.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
