About this listen

THIS AUTUMN'S MUST-HAVE AUTOBIOGRAPHY

'A split-second decision is all it takes. A decision that can change the course of a cricket match. Maybe even the course of your life.'

In Coming Home, Freddie Flintoff zeroes-in on the crucial moments that made him - some highly celebrated, others less well-known, away from the cameras, but all pivotal in shaping the man he is.

As a boy, growing up in Preston, Fred fell in love with the game of cricket. It gave him his route through life; out on the pitch he felt at home. Through his eyes we see him picking up a bat for the first time, his early years on the field; that incredible performance to win the Ashes against the Aussies in 2005; face-downs with rivals; run-ins with the media; the doctors telling him he can't continue to play. On and off the pitch, in and out of the spotlight, Fred tells the whole story.

After retiring, Fred thought he'd left the game behind, relaunching himself in the world of entertainment, but following the car crash that turned his life upside down, it was cricket to which he returned.

Coming Home is a reflection on a unique life, a story like no other, and a love letter to the game that made him. Honest, open, reflective and funny, like the man himself, this is Freddie Flintoff, in full, in his own words.

The audiobook includes an exclusive Q&A between Freddie and comedy writer, producer and friend, Clyde Holcroft.©2025 Freddie Flintoff (P)2025 Bonnier Books UK

This book wouldn't hit the same if it was narrated by someone else or read as a traditional book. I'm not really a cricket fan but I couldn't stop listening. It seems like this book is Fred's response to the Disney documentary which didn't turn out how he imagined. He's telling his story on his own terms. He made the correct decision to not talk about the crash. Really enjoyed hearing about Field Of Dreams, having watched all three series (which could and should have a book written just on its own). This is a book everyone can identify with. Mental health problems, lack of confidence, imposter syndrome, overcoming the innate adversity growing up on a council estate brings.
