Losers
Dispatches from the Other Side of the Scoreboard
Mary Pilon
Exploring the untold stories of losing, Losers features essays from 22 notable writers, including Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Gay Talese. From Olympic gymnasts to LeBron James's losing record, these stories range from humorous to somber, but all focus on the significance of defeat. Interweaving unpublished pieces with beloved classics, Losers turns sports writing on its head and proves that inspiration can be found in stories of resilience and getting back up after being knocked down.
