Breaking the Surface: por Greg Louganis
Fascinating story - insight into worlds I will never know.
Greg Louganis has a gift - he can dive. His telling of Olympic competition is compelling. Rest of story isn't as much.
I found this book to be unbelievably honest and deeply affecting. Not only it is a wonderful story about diving and what it takes to be a champion. It is also window into Greg Louganis's inner feelings and the choices he has to make under painfully difficult circumstances.
Olympic diving gold medallist Greg Louganis was molested by one of his coaches. He kept going back for the ‘affection, the holding, the cuddling – more than the sex. I was starved for affection’.
