Description
“She writes just like she talks, and her autobiography is full of glorious little anecdotes relayed in that blunt, often hilarious, style.” - Sunday Star Times
“A rollicking story of a life well lived” - Petra Bagust
“This is the story of becoming Suzy D - in all her determined, triumphant and unabashed singularity” - John Campbell
Susan Devoy loved squash from an early age - but she loved winning more. This fiercely competitive spirit helped make her a four-time squash world champion and has been the driving force throughout her remarkable life.
Dame Susan has been many things: sporting champ and chief executive, Race Relations Commissioner, television star, kiwifruit picker, and mother to four boys. Through it all, she has remained resolutely and distinctly herself.
In her own words - and in the hilarious, straight-up style that won her legions of new fans on Celebrity Treasure Island - Dame Susan tells the story of her life so far: the wins, the losses, the battles... and the bonds that got her through life's hardest challenges.
