About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

This is the story of my entire life so far... It’s been a rollercoaster ride and I have no intention of getting off any time soon.

Available exclusively in audio, Losing and Finding My Virginity is both of Sir Richard Branson’s multi-million-copy bestselling autobiographies in one combined edition, fully revised and updated, and read for you by the author in full for the first time.

From living on a houseboat to a paradise island home, growing a small business into the global Virgin brand, turning a childhood dream of flying to space into a reality, and building a better world through business, this is an account of almost six decades of entrepreneurship, overcoming the odds and reaching for the stars.

With lessons in life and in business, Losing and Finding My Virginity is a must-listen memoir and an inspiring guide from the ultimate entrepreneur.

Branson has a list of achievements unmatched by any other UK businessman. For anyone burning with entrepreneurial zeal, his reminiscences are akin to a sacred text. - Mail on Sunday

A remarkable story of business success against the financial odds – having created one of the world’s most admired brand names, Branson is entitled to tell it all. - Evening Standard

I absolutely loved this book, a epic rollercoaster of a ride. What an adventure Branson has led and inspires to lead. I enjoyed Branson reading the audible and despite it being long, I was sad when it concluded.

A true inspiration

Well laid out peek into over 5 decades of the life and times of one of the greatest legends. From selling records to traversing space and everything in between, Sir Richard Branson’s life unfolds before you as he narrates his successes, failures and battles fought hard and most importantly his near death experiences that he has lived to tell us. Absolute gem!

Brilliant tale of a legend!

Truly fascinating story of a remarkable man.
My only grumble would be the tinny nature of the audio.

I've read the books, and was looking forward to revisiting them via the audiobooks. You'd think, with Richard reading them himself, it would add to the authenticity and connection with the listener. Unfortunately, the recording is sub-par. It sounds like he is in a cupboard rather than a recording studio. Also Richard does not quite hit his stride until later on in the recording. It's not bad enough to make it unlistenable, far from it, but it does mar the enjoyment.

Great Story - Below Par Recording

Whilst I had read the first part of this story before it didn’t lose any of its ability to amaze me with Bransons earliest escapades and business deals. Great to hear how his journey has grown and continued. He continues to inspire and motivate in this wonderful life we are all living.

My only concern was the quality of the audible recording especially hearing in mind the resources that the audio guys must have had at their disposal with Virgin. The editing was truly appalling in many parts. This didn’t take away from the story but slightly interrupted my enjoyment overall of the audio book.

Amazing life story of a truly exceptional man.

I enjoyed listening to Losing and finding my virginity. In 2007, I stopped smoking cannabis as I realised I was allergic to it. To fill the time, I read Sir Richards Branson's autobiography; it was the only one I read entirely as I started books but never finished. That book gave me so much inspiration and kick-started my life. Thanks once again, Sir.

The balloon adventures made me feel as if I was there

Thank you :)
