tennis talk of a nobody

Tennis Talk of a Nobody weaves three sets of narratives from memory, old photographs, and newspaper clippings. The resulting montage reflects seven decades of this teacher & writer’s life. Gail Kenna’s memoir explores a modern parental story... of a father with a dream for a daughter. ＂Five Uneasy Pieces＂ in set two reveals what shadowed the author as failure was its opposite. The crisscrossed strings of her life as a tennis player & teacher, reveal life’s three C’s: chance, circumstance, connection. Insightful, inspiring, entertaining... this memoir about life is not confined to a tennis court but traverses the larger world.
