Books by with Dan Paisner
“Athlete books are normally for sports fans only and if you’re not a fan of the sport or of the person, you don’t have much interest. But this is a human interest story. It’s not simply an autobiography, but a memoir—the difference being that memoirs are more episodic. They’re part of periods of a person’s life, and that’s what this book by Serena is. It doesn’t cover everything about Serena’s life story, but it’s a period of her life. The second thing to note is that there’s no suspicion that she didn’t write this. The ghostwriter has a credit, so there’s some acknowledged co-authorial involvement here, but it’s still written in the first person.
