THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

'What a journey to wisdom ... a must read' - Robert Downey Jr

The gripping and inspiring story of acclaimed actor Jeremy Renner’s near-fatal accident, and what he learned about inner strength, endurance and hope as he overcame insurmountable odds to recover, one breath at a time.

Two-time Oscar nominee Jeremy Renner was the second most googled person in 2023… and not for his impressive filmography. His searing portrayals on film ranged from an Iraq-based army bomb technician in The Hurt Locker and a Boston bank robber in The Town to a crooked Camden mayor in American Hustle before he became heir to the Jason Bourne franchise (The Bourne Legacy). Amongst other iconic roles, he also captured hearts as fan-favorite comic book marksman Hawkeye in seven Marvel films.

Yet, his otherworldly success on-screen faded to the periphery when a fourteen-thousand-pound snowplow crushed him on New Year’s Day 2023. Somehow able to keep breathing for more than half an hour, he was subsequently rushed to the ICU, after which he would face multiple surgeries and months of painful rehabilitation.

In this debut memoir, Jeremy writes in blistering detail about his accident and the aftermath. This retelling is not merely a gruesome account of what happened to him; it’s a call to action and a forged companionship between reader and author as Jeremy recounts his recovery journey and reflects on the impact of his suffering. Ultimately, Jeremy’s memoir is a testament to the human spirit and its capacity to endure, evolve, and find purpose in the face of unimaginable adversity. His writing captures the essence of profound transformation, exploring the delicate interplay between vulnerability and strength, despair and hope, redemption and renewal.©2025 Jeremy Renner (P)2025 Simon & Schuster UK

Difficult listen at times but inspiring. I feel uplifted after listening. More powerful as it was read by Jeremy himself.

Moved to tears in parts (hard not to be hearing the emotion break in his voice), and left feeling reflective at the wisdom shared.
An interesting man, sharing an intimate and very personal experience. Felt like he was sat across from me, in an armchair just telling me his story.
A story of actions, consequences and the sheer power of will.

I did like him as an actor. I liked his movies. But never gave him nuch thought. Ofcourse I read about his accident and later on saw some interviews. But having listened to his book I now have mad respect for the man. What a beautiful human being. He is inspiring and I am happy he survived and wrote this book.

Such an inspiring and emotive read. I feel that I should say that ‘every day is a good day because I’ve not been run over by a snow cat!’ Thank you for sharing your story. It made me grateful, it made me cry because of the love spoken of and it was an incredible account of overcoming adversity.
