This memoir follows the story of a teenage Olympic swimmer struggling with alcoholism and loneliness. Despite her impressive career, she is isolated from her family and unable to form lasting connections. She finds herself living a life of cheap hotels, anonymous sexual encounters, and drug use. Written in stunningly raw and poetic prose, this book is a visceral and evocative exploration of survival, defiance, and finding a light within the darkness.
