I highly recommend this book. I started reading the ebook, and my library loan ended, so I picked up with the audiobook, and it was so worthwhile to listen to this one! The interview between Abrams and Jane Goodall is recorded by their own voices, which is really special. The book is clearly inspired by the Book of Joy which I also really loved.
Goodall shares so many inspiring stories about nature and resilience and hope. Her distinction between faith, optimism, and hope are compelling, and as I reader I was convinced to have hope for nature, humans, and the future.

A remény könyve nem egy klasszikus kötet, ugyanis Jane Goodall Douglas Abramsszal beszélget. A középpontban ‒ ahogyan a cím is mutatja ‒ a remény áll, azonban maga a könyv inkább egy komplex áttekintés, hogy mi is történt a természettel az elmúlt időszakban, és mi várhat rá a jövőben. A nagyszerűségét pedig maga Jane Goodall történetei adják meg, aki mesél a fiatalkoráról, hogy hogyan vált természetvédővé, és hogy milyen kalandokban volt része.
Természetesen A remény könyve fő témája mégis az egyre súlyosabbá váló helyzet. Jane Goodall viszont mint egy jóságos idős hölgy megnyugtat, hogy mindig van remény, hiszen ez viszi előre a világot. A kötet számomra másik nagyszerűsége pedig pont ebben állt: nem kelt az olvasóban klímaszorongást, de mégis tettekre sarkallja.

I love Jane, I really wanted to love this book. But I found it painful to read in a lot of parts. There was so much disability inspiration porn, elements of white saviourism and it felt like it lacked an intersectional lens. It was something I would have probably lapped up 10 years ago but it didn’t feel like it hit the mark in 2022.

There are a few truly inspirational people that when they speak the world listens. Jane Goodall is one of them. Her gifts of insight on the subject of hope in our very trying times will encourage you and give much to think about and share.
Read this book… and do it soon.

5 stars for the book, but 3 stars for the audiobook - it was read as a conversation between the authors, and I loved listening to Jane read her thoughts. But it needed to be adapted a bit more for the audiobook. The attribution words (like "Jane said," "Jane laughed,") were SO intrusive and annoying.

Jane Goodall has been one of those people who I’ve always seen and admired for her work with/for animals and as a naturalist. Listening to her tell of her adventures, tragedies, successes, and life was wonderful. She is passionate while being encouraging. She teaches while also learning. She listens while also communicating. She is full of hope and has me more encouraged and hopeful about our future.
