The fiercely honest, fearless, darkly funny autobiography of global
tennis star Maria Sharapova In the middle of the night, a father
and his daughter step off a Greyhound bus in Florida and head
straight to the Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy. They ring the
bell, though no one is expecting them and they don't speak English.
They have arrived from Russia with just seven hundred dollars and
the conviction that this six-year-old girl will be the world's next
great tennis star. They are right. This is Maria Sharapova's
gripping and fearless autobiography, telling her story from her
roots in the small Siberian town her parents fled to after the
Chernobyl disaster, through her arrival in the US with nothing and
her phenomenal rise to success - winning Wimbledon aged just
seventeen - to the disasters that threatened her career and her
fight back. 'A compelling memoir' David Shaftel, Financial Times
'An illuminating account ... This is the bildungsroman of a
controversial champion, a portrait of the athlete as an uncommonly
driven young woman' Julia Felsenthal, Vogue
