'Thoughtful and well-informed' London Review of Books
'A fluent writer with a flair for vivid and entertaining prose' Guardian
'Free is not just a literary retelling of a life. It's an easy and enjoyable read' The Times
'An account of extraordinary grace. Despite the trauma of the trials, imprisonment, of a life hounded by the press, Knox finds purpose in writing and in connecting with other exonerees and women whose lives have been derailed by the court of public opinion' London Standard
'Free is an achievement that moves beyond questions of innocence or guilt - an accomplished book by a woman who has been shaped by events but not destroyed by them' Sunday Independent
Amanda Knox reflects on her world famous confinement in an Italian prison - and her return to an 'ordinary' life - to reveal hard won truths about purpose and fulfilment that will resonate with anyone who has felt trapped in their own circumstances.
Amanda Knox spent nearly four years in prison and eight years on trial for a murder she didn't commit - and became a notorious tabloid story in the process. Though she was exonerated, it's taken more than a decade for her to reclaim her identity and truly feel free.
Free recounts how Amanda survived prison, the mistakes she made and misadventures she had reintegrating into society, culminating in the untold story of her return to Italy and the extraordinary relationship she's built with the man who sent her to prison. It is the gripping saga of what happens when you become the definition of notorious, but have quietly returned to the matters of a normal life - seeking a life partner, finding a job, or even just going out in public.
In harrowing (and sometimes hilarious) detail, Amanda tells the story of her personal growth and hard‑fought wisdom, recasting her public reckoning as a private reflection on the search for meaning and purpose that will speak to everyone persevering through hardship.

Amanda Knox spent nearly four years in prison and eight years on trial for a murder she didn't commit-and became a tabloid story in the process. Though she was exonerated, it's taken more than a decade for her to reclaim her identity and truly feel free.
Free recounts how Knox survived incarceration, the mistakes she made and misadventures she had as she reintegrated into society, and it culminates in the as-yet untold story of her return to Italy and the extraordinary relationship she went on to build with the man who sent her to prison. It is the moving saga of how she wrests back her own life from the grip of her story's notoriety and returns to the quiet matters of a normal life-seeking a partner, finding a job, and even just going out in public.
In harrowing (and sometimes hilarious) detail, Knox reveals her personal growth and hard-fought wisdom, recasting her public reckoning as a private reflection on the search for meaning and purpose that will speak to anyone facing a seemingly insurmountable hardship.
