Travelling To Infinity (Film Tie-in)

The True Story behind The Theory of Everything In this compelling memoir, Jane Hawking, Stephen Hawking’s first wife, relates the inside story of their extraordinary marriage.

As Stephen’s academic renown soared, his body was collapsing under the assaults of motor neurone disease, and Jane’s candid account of trying to balance his twentyfour- hour care with the needs of their growing family will be inspirational to anyone dealing with family illness.

The innerstrength of the author, and the self-evident character and achievements of her husband, make for an incredible tale that is always presented with unflinching honesty; the author’s candour is no less evident when the marriage finally ends in a highprofile meltdown, with Stephen leaving Jane for one of his nurses, while Jane goes on to marry an old family friend.
