About this listen

"You know those people who always radiate cheerful optimism? Nauseating, aren't they?" So proclaims Isabel Losada, Starbucks addict, exercise-allergic and self-confessed sceptic as she sets out on the road to enlightenment. This work is suitable for those who have been tempted to dip a toe in the waters of self-discovery.

I am the last person to write an objective review as I own all of Isabel's books and have been on her Life Kickstart workshop too. It had been a while since reading this particular one and I especially enjoyed little details I had forgotten. Isabel attends a whole range of courses and seminars I would chicken out of and I love going on second-hand adventures with her, same as I love the armchair travel of a good subtitled film from an exotic land. Her spirit which is so full of life and openness to new experiences is captured really well both in the words and her unique delivery of them. This really is a treat!

Hopelessly biased but I loved every minute!!

The narrator in this Audio version seems to understand Isabel very well and gives a very convincing performance as Isabel. So convincing intact that it could almost be the author herself reading it. ;-)

My wife and I enjoyed listening to Isabel read to us very much (she's a natural story teller). I didn’t think I would be able to just sit and listen, but Isabel made the experience relaxing and fun, even thought we had read the book ourselves a few years ago (it was great to revisit); now I’m hooked.

Where does The Battersea Park Road to Enlightenment rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Amongst the very best. Isabel's enthusiasm and humour are present throughout her audio Delivery....err except when she's depressed, withdrawn, serious, etc. Excellent entertainment if you're interested in any of Isabel's Books, becoming Enlightened, seeking Happiness, or Self Improvement in general.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Battersea Park Road to Enlightenment?

Far too many to mention, But for a Journalist, Isabel has the disarming knack of relaying each and every embarrassing detail of her journey through various treatments and courses on her quest to Enlightenment. She holds nothing back and leaves herself wide open for those with a critical view. This makes you feel like you're listening to a friend.

Which character – as performed by Isabel Losada – was your favourite?

The Book and Audiobook are both mainly based on Isabel's first hand experiences. With additional input from various friends, family etc.

(But I'm really looking forward to her portrayal of HH The Dalai Lama, in her next audiobook).

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I have all of Isabel's Books and have enjoyed them all immensely. But listening to her first Audio Book was a joy.

Any additional comments?

Excellent in every way.
