#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - 6 MILLION COPIES SOLD WORLDWIDE Discover the life-changing memoir that has inspired millions of readers through the Academy Award-winning actor's unflinching honesty, unconventional wisdom, and lessons learned the hard way about living with greater satisfaction. "The No. 1 celebrity memoir of the past 10 years."--USA Today "McConaughey's book invites us to grapple with the lessons of his life as he did--and to see that the point was never to win, but to understand."--Mark Manson, author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck I've been in this life for fifty years, been trying to work out its riddle for forty-two, and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last thirty-five. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel, and things that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man. How to have meaning in life. How to be more me. Recently, I worked up the courage to sit down with those diaries. I found stories I experienced, lessons I learned and forgot, poems, prayers, prescriptions, beliefs about what matters, some great photographs, and a whole bunch of bumper stickers. I found a reliable theme, an approach to living that gave me more satisfaction, at the time, and still: If you know how, and when, to deal with life's challenges--how to get relative with the inevitable--you can enjoy a state of success I call "catching greenlights." So I took a one-way ticket to the desert and wrote this book: an album, a record, a story of my life so far. This is fifty years of my sights and seens, felts and figured-outs, cools and shamefuls. Graces, truths, and beauties of brutality. Getting away withs, getting caughts, and getting wets while trying to dance between the raindrops. Hopefully, it's medicine that tastes good, a couple of aspirin instead of the infirmary, a spaceship to Mars without needing your pilot's license, going to church without having to be born again, and laughing through the tears. It's a love letter. To life. It's also a guide to catching more greenlights--and to realizing that the yellows and reds eventually turn green too. Good luck. The short dust jacket included with this hardcover edition is an intentional design choice.

Epäsovinnaisen näyttelijän posketon omaelämäkerta on rakkauskirje elämälle.”McConaughey on lahjakas näyttelijä ja oiva kirjailija, mutta todellinen nero elämisessä.” - kirjailija Lawrence WrightMatthew McConaughey tunnetaan intensiivisistä, palkituista rooleistaan muun muassa tv-sarjassa True Detective sekä elokuvissa Interstellar ja Dallas Buyers' Club. Räyhäkkäässä mutta rakastavassa duunariperheessä varttunut McConaughey on kirjoittanut teini-iästä asti päiväkirjaa ja tuntenut vahvaa vetoa ihmisenä kasvamiseen ja henkisyyteen. Vihreää valoa ei ole siksi vain omaelämäkerta. Se on myös hulvaton elämänopas, joka tallentaa ne valaistumisen hetket, joina elämä tuntuu siltä kuin surffaisi vihreällä aallolla. Nuo hetket ovat tehneet McConaugheysta yhden maailman tunnetuimmista näyttelijöistä - ja hyvin onnellisen ihmisen. ”Tämä kirja kattaa 50 vuotta näkemääni ja kokemaani, tuntemaani ja oivaltamaani, siistiä ja noloa. (...) Toivon että se on hyvänmakuista lääkettä, pari aspiriinia sairaalan sijaan, avaruusmatka Marsiin vailla astronautin lupakirjaa, jumalanpalvelus ilman uskoontuloa ja naurua kyynelten läpi. Tämä on rakkauskirje. Elämälle.”Matthew McConaughey on Oscar-palkittu näyttelijä. Hän näytteli vuosia romanttisten komedioiden komeaa arkkityyppimiestä, kunnes päätti muuttaa uransa suuntaa, ja hänet tunnetaan nykyisin paremmin rooleistaan elokuvissa Magic Mike, Interstellar, Dallas Buyers' Club ja The Wolf of Wall Street sekä tv-sarjasta True Detective. McConaughey asuu Texasissa vaimonsa ja kolmen lapsensa kanssa. Vihreää valoa nousi heti ilmestyttyään New York Timesin bestseller-listan ykköseksi, ja The Guardian -lehti valitsi sen yhdeksi vuoden 2020 parhaista kirjoista.
