About this listen

 In 1994, Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson were brutally murdered at her home in Brentwood, California. O. J. Simpson was tried for the crime in a case that captured the attention of the American people, but he was ultimately found not guilty of criminal charges. The victims' families brought civil cases against Simpson, in which he was found liable for willfully and wrongfully causing the deaths of Ron and Nicole by committing battery with malice and oppression.

In 2006, HarperCollins announced the publication of a book in which O. J. Simpson told how he hypothetically would have committed the murders. In response to public outrage that Simpson stood to profit from these crimes, HarperCollins canceled the book. A Florida bankruptcy court awarded the rights to the Goldmans in August 2007 to partially satisfy the unpaid civil judgment, which has risen, with interest, to over $38 million.

The Goldman family views this book as Simpson's confession, and has worked hard to ensure that the public will read or listen to this book and learn the truth. This audiobook was produced from the original manuscript approved by O. J. Simpson, with additional insight from the Goldman Family, Pablo F. Fenjves, and Dominick Dunne.

I enjoyed the prologue by Kim Goldman and the epilogue by Dominick Dunne. G. Calming Thomas did a wonderful job narrating the book as O.J. Simpson. Most of the time I forgot that it wasn’t O.J. narrating his own story.

hard to listen to because Simpson was obviously lying so I was infuriated by this! Much love to the Goldman family for taking control of this book. i hope they are able to keep Simpson in jail where he belongs

Narration is excellent, and the forward by the ghost writer is very compelling as well. The book itself is full of OJ’s lies. It can get extremely boring as he ceaselessly retreads how amazing he is, and how annoying he found his murder victim.

If you’re interested in this book as a one of a kind oddity, i’d say go for it. If you’d like to learn a good deal about the OJ case, this will not suffice.

Its conflicting to give this book a good rating so I'm sticking to neutrality. My heart goes out to the Goldmans and the Browns. Such a terrible injustice. I'm glad I listened to the audiobook, I couldn't have read it otherwise.

Neutral review bc nothing OJ does is good

With all the controversy about this book, I found it a surprisingly good listen. The narrator did a very good "OJ voice" impression, and the story is what you would imagine would be Simpson's own, the way he actually sees it. The controversial "fantasy" bit only lasts less than 5 minutes, the rest is the story told from Simpson's point of view about his last marriage. Of course this is not a "confession" the way it has been touted, it is clear that this is not really what happened, especially the part about another person ("Charlie") having witnessed it.
