NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • Sharon Stone tells her own story: a journey of healing, love, and purpose. • "Not your typical Hollywood autobiography. Brutally honest, restless and questing." -O, The Oprah Magazine
Sharon Stone, one of the most renowned actresses in the world, suffered a massive stroke that cost her not only her health, but her career, family, fortune, and global fame. In The Beauty of Living Twice, Stone chronicles her efforts to rebuild her life and writes about her slow road back to wholeness and health. In a business that doesn't accept failure, in a world where too many voices are silenced, Stone found the power to return, the courage to speak up, and the will to make a difference in the lives of men, women, and children around the globe.
Over the course of these intimate pages, as candid as a personal conversation, Stone talks about her pivotal roles, her life-changing friendships, her worst disappointments, and her greatest accomplishments. She reveals how she went from a childhood of trauma and violence to a career in an industry that in many ways echoed those same assaults, under cover of money and glamour. She describes the strength and meaning she found in her children, and in her humanitarian efforts. And ultimately, she shares how she fought her way back to find not only her truth, but her family's reconciliation and love.
Stone made headlines not just for her beauty and her talent, but for her candor and her refusal to "play nice," and it's those same qualities that make this memoir so powerful. The Beauty of Living Twice is a book for the wounded and a book for the survivors; it's a celebration of women's strength and resilience, a reckoning, and a call to activism. It is proof that it's never too late to raise your voice and speak out.

Bewertet: Buch (Gebundene Ausgabe)
Sharon Stone schreibt in diesem Buch weniger über den Glanz und Glamour Hollywoods, sondern vielmehr über das Vergeben und den Schmerz des Lebens. Das könnte aufgesetzt wirken, da sie allerdings eher über ihre Familie und das Private schreibt, wirkt es so authentisch, dass man sogar den "Star" vergisst und eben über eine Frau liest, die Sharon Stone heißt. Das wenige, was sie über ihre Arbeit am Set schreibt, entlarvt eher die Schattenseiten der Traumfabrik, wenn zB. von Schauspielerinnen gefordert wird, dass man mit der männlichen Hauptrolle doch mal das Bett teilen könne, um eine Chemie auf der Leinwand zu projizieren, wird einem beim Lesen schon ein bisschen anders. Wie gesagt, geht es eher um die Schattenseiten in Familien, schwere psychische sowie sexuelle Übergriffe und Traumata, die es zu bewältigen gilt. Und dann auch noch über Wohltätigkeitsprojekte und wirkliche Armut in der Welt. Kurzum ein so ein intimes Werk, dass dann dennoch so respektvoll daherkommt, dass man wirklich erst einige Zeit nach Beenden der Lektüre begreift, was man da eigentlich gelesen hat und wie wichtig Vergebung für das eigene Leben ist.
