Alcoholics Anonymous: The Big Book

di Bill W. (Autore)

Snowball, 2026

“The Big Book” is the most widely used and influential guide ever created for people seeking recovery from alcoholism. Founded in 1939, Alcoholics Anonymous emerged from the work of Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith, who developed a practical program for achieving and sustaining sobriety. Their experiences—and the experiences of those who followed—were gathered into what became known worldwide as The Big Book, now one of the bestselling and most impactful books of all time. This audiobook presents the original 1939 edition, which first introduced the Twelve Steps, offering straightforward guidance for those who struggle with alcohol addiction, including individuals who question or wrestle with the idea of a higher power. Uniquely, this edition includes all 29 original personal stories, told by the program’s pioneers themselves. These candid accounts trace real journeys through addiction, early recovery, setbacks, and lasting sobriety—without romanticizing the struggle or simplifying the process. Listeners will also hear the foundational spiritual principle described by Bill Wilson: a transformative inner experience that enables individuals to rediscover—or discover—a deeper sense of meaning and connection. Unlike later revisions, this original edition presents a clear, realistic portrayal of recovery as it was first understood, emphasizing that success can take many forms and that progress is often nonlinear. With its honest tone, practical wisdom, and enduring message of hope, The Big Book continues to serve as a lifeline to millions around the world—now brought to life in a compelling audiobook format for today’s listeners.
