Running her race
New Zealand Listener
|May 20-26 2023
A young woman’s athletic talent leads her through obstacles in sport and life.
EVERYTHING EVERYTHING IS BEAUTIFUL AND HURTS, by Josie Shapiro (A&U, $36.99, out May 16).
Mickey Bloom is a talented, driven character awash with an underlying need to please, in the way so many women have been conditioned. She discovers the thrill of running at the tender age of seven when she blitzes the competition at a kids' free athletics event. And as her running career goes from strength to strength, it changes the course of her life for the better - and the worse.
