Why read it?

1 author picked Apology as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

There is only one by an author who performed with skates on his hands, does a headstand on the ice (no hands!), who protested his low score on a figure by quitting in the middle of the championship and retiring from competitive skating then and there. And who served two years in prison while maintaining his innocence. Everyone claims to be an original these days. Beacom did it first. And he explains why.

From Alina's list on figure skating and its scandals.
