About this audiobook

Audiobook version of PJ Murray's brutally honest memoir Self-Made (Jestina Media, 2018), which chronicles his metamorphosis from a barely literate juvenile delinquent in the racially-charged 1970s into a successful 21st century businessman.

After overcoming an underprivileged childhood in northwest London and a decade-long cycle of criminality and incarceration, Murray matured into a street-smart business operator who has played integral but unsung roles in two landmark British media platforms: Pride Magazine and music TV station Channel U.

While exploring issues such as faith, culture, and entrepreneurialism, Murray's fascinating book is also peppered with mind-boggling accounts of sex, revenge, tragedy, Jamaican voodoo, and personal development.

Ratings and reviews

Phenomenal! The fastest I've ever read a book (24 hours) - it literally had me gripped! PJ has lived multiple lifetimes throughout his 5 decades; and his brutally honest and raw accounts of his tumultuous journey are nothing short of admirable. I especially loved that his emotions were narrated at every stage, whether it was celebratory, mourning or livid, you're right there with him. I absolutely would recommend this to anyone who enjoys reading motivational/crime/business/relationship/thrillers - because this book covers literally all genres, but with the entertainment factor. It definitely needs to be made into a film!
