'Soft Tissue Damage' tells the story of author Anna Whitwham’s lifelong interest in boxing — from her first training sessions through bruising sparring sessions to building up to a full-blooded fight. Whitwham charts the transformative impact the sport had on her during a profoundly difficult period dealing with the grief of losing her mother to cancer. Tender, insightful, honest, and full of startling and original thought, this book fully examines what the human body is both capable and incapable of. It examines what the human body truly means in its capacity for sexuality and violence, love and death, strength and vulnerability.
