      More Than This
    • Serena Williams, obecnie najwybitniejsza tenisistka, zdobyła wszystkie najważniejsze tytuły w swojej dyscyplinie. Jako mała dziewczynka rozpoczęła treningi na publicznym korcie z ojcem i z rakietą niemal równie wielką jak ona sama. Nie zniechęciło jej to jednak do tenisa – wielka rakieta była dla niej wyzwaniem, któremu musiała sprostać. Z podobną determinacją traktowała wszystkie inne przeszkody, stające jej na drodze do sukcesu. Musiała borykać się z kontuzją, krytyką za nieortodoksyjne podejście do tenisa, czy też depresją po tragicznej śmierci najstarszej siostry, zawsze jednak potrafiła przezwyciężyć przeciwności losu. Na korcie i poza nim okazywała siłę i zdecydowanie. Fascynująca i wzruszająca książka Sereny Williams, napisana u szczytu sportowej kariery, opisuje jej nadzwyczajne życie i pozwala lepiej zrozumieć i docenić tę znakomitą tenisistkę.
