Martin G: All the Medals Have Been
Handed Out

All the Medals Have Been Handed Out

The hilarious and piercing memoir about growing up gay in a not-so-gay world. 'A beautiful celebration of being different.' TOM ALLEN'An important story, told with a sharp wit and disarming humour' MOHSIN ZAIDI author of A Dutiful Boy'Brilliant, spectacularly witty and genuinely moving. I loved it.' MATTHEW TODD, author of Straight JacketI'm just a man, standing in front of a salad, asking it to be a cake. What do you do when you're too gay for Pakistan, too Pakistani to be gay in America and you're ashamed of your body everywhere?How can you find happiness despite years of humiliation, fear and a legion of Brooklyn hipsters who know you only as a queer from Whereveristan?How do you summon the courage to be yourself no matter where you are?Even as a young child in Lahore, Komail Aijazuddin knew he was different. Other boys didn't pirouette off their desks, get bullied for their 'manboobs' or spontaneously burst into songs from The Little Mermaid. Other boys didn't play together like that. Starved of a crucial part of himself, he ate. And ate. Before long, his own body became another burden to carry everywhere and to hide. Komail began to believe his only chance at a happy, meaningful life would be found elsewhere: in America, land of the free, home of the gays. But he would soon learn that finding happiness takes a lot more than a plane ticket. This is Aijazuddin's riotous, intelligent memoir of searching for his place between two worlds while navigating a minefield of expectations, prejudice and self-doubt. In Manboobs, Aijazuddin confidently announces himself as a sharp new voice in humour with his moving, wickedly funny search for love and the bravery required to be yourself.

Testament Of Youth

The definitive autobiography of the greatest goalkeeper of all time. 'If this isn't a number one bestseller, I don't know what is. He wore number one. He was the number one. He truly is one of one' James Horncastle, Serie A reporter for The Athletic 'A superb and revealing autobiography' John Foot, author of Calcio: A History of Italian Football _____________________ On 19 November 1995, the world learned the name Gianluigi Buffon. At the tender age of seventeen he made his Serie A debut for Parma against European giants Milan, facing down the likes of Roberto Baggio and George Weah, keeping a clean sheet. During his twenty-eight-year long career Buffon broke many records including: - The most capped goalkeeper of all time and the most appearance for Italy (176) - The most Serie A titles (10) - The longest time in Serie A without conceding a goal (974 minutes) The numbers, however, only tell half the story of a player famously nicknamed "Superman" for his athletic prowess. In Saved Buffon reveals that even superheroes struggle with their inner demons. Beyond his individual triumphs with Parma, Juventus and PSG - the famous World Cup win in 2006 - Buffon reflects on his deeply human challenges off the pitch. He describes being devoured by depression between games and the psychological toll of being a goalkeeper - the loneliest position in football - often finding solace in talking to his gloves. He opens up about his gambling, smoking during matches and the strains on his relationships which became fodder for the press. Buffon's are the struggles of a man whose talents and flaws co-exit. Saved is both a meditation on the art of goalkeeping and a love letter to the golden age of Italian football.
