FROM THE WRITER OF THE OSCAR-WININNG WOMEN TALKINGINTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHORLONGLISTED FOR THE DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD\'Go Grandma Elvira!\' Margaret Atwood\'Wickedly funny and fearlessly honest.\' The New Yorker\'Glorious.\' Sarah Moss____________You are a small thing, and you must learn to fight.Swiv has taken this advice too literally. Now she\'s suspended from school, in the care of her foul-mouthed, hilarious grandmother. Mom is busy being pregnant, so Grandma gives Swiv a very different education. Swiv learns maths with Amish jigsaws and How to Dig a Winter Grave. Grandma\'s methods may be unorthodox, but she has faced the worst of life with a wild, independent spirit and this is what she hopes to pass on. Time is running short. Grandma\'s health is failing and the baby is on the way - can Grandma inspire this fire in Swiv, and ensure it never goes out?Poignant, hilarious and deeply moving, Fight Night is a girl\'s love letter to the women raising her and a tribute to one family\'s fighting spirit.\'A love letter to our brave and brilliant matriarchs.\' Glamour\'Miriam Toews is a genius.\' R. O. Kwon\'As compelling and hilarious and indecently sad as life can be.\' Financial Times Σελίδες: 272, Διαστάσεις: 12.9x12.9cm
