Description
Godspeed: A Memoir is a deeply personal and evocative account of one woman's struggle with addiction and loneliness.
At 15, Casey Legler was already a world-class swimmer, but behind the scenes she was fighting a different kind of battle - one that would take her to the depths of despair and back again. With searing honesty, she recounts her experiences as an athlete, an outsider, and a addict, revealing the sinister loneliness that threatened to consume her.
This is a story of survival, defiance, and the resilience of the human spirit. Written in visceral prose, it shines a light on the darkest corners of the human experience, and the embers that still burn when everything else goes dark.
