Is there anything you would change about this book?
Carole Boyd. I have listened to her before many times and enjoyed her reading, however this time she seemed detached and that made it hard going. A shame because I was really looking forward to this. I don't know if it was that she wasn't that fussed or what?
Who was your favorite character and why?
Stephen, obviously. Not just for his unparalleled intelligence, humour and humility but his perseverance against odds most of us couldn't even begin to imagine.
What didn’t you like about Carole Boyd’s performance?
Her narration in other books is quite engaging, lively and seems energetic, not so in this book which is very disappointing as I was really looking forward to it. I waited to see Theory until after this book, I'm glad I did otherwise I wouldn't have bothered finishing it.
Was Stephen Hawking: His Life and Work worth the listening time?
Definitely worth listening to but in order of preference read the book, see the film listen to the audio - sorry Carole, I have heard you do better.
Any additional comments?
A very well written book with personality throughout.
