The Bone Cage (NeWest Press, 2007) by Angie Abdou
This tale of two Olympians struck a chord with the athletic and non-athletic alike. Lyndsay Belisle thinks all of Canada should get a behind-the-scenes look at the world of elite athletes. She wrote:
"This book really made me feel what it must have felt like to be a wrestler and a swimmer. The author did an excellent job making the reader 'see into' the daily lives of a Canadian amateur athlete. Once I started reading The Bone Cage, I could not put it down!"
Accolades: The Bone Cage was number one on our own CBC Book Club's Top 10 Sports Books and it won critical praise from reviewers nation-wide, including Quill & Quire, which called it "well paced and readable, memorable for its fresh perspective on the lives of athletes and the obstacles they must overcome."
