📱 eBook en inglés JOYRIDE

The story of my life is the story of my stories, writes Susan Orlean in this extraordinary, era-defining memoir from one of the greatest practitioners of narrative nonfiction of our time.

While Orlean has always written her way into other peoples lives in order to understand the human experience, Joyride is her most personal book ever - a searching journey through finding her feet as a journalist, recovering from the excruciating collapse of her first marriage, falling head-over-heels in love again, becoming a parent while mourning the decline of her own mother, sojourning to Hollywood for films based on her work including Adaptation and Blue Crush, and confronting mortality. Joyride is also a time machine to a bygone era of journalism, from Orleans bright start in the golden age of alt-weeklies to her career-making days working alongside icons such as Robert Gottlieb, Tina Brown, David Remnick, Anna Wintour and Sonny Mehta - forces who shaped the media industry as we know it today.

Infused with Orleans signature warmth and wit, Joyride is a must-read for anyone who hungers to start, build and sustain a creative life.
