Waiting for Carver Boyd Avis

'This is the extraordinary story of a young prospect who rejects hate and instead chooses to be inspired by love on his journey through life and the rigours of the fight game. Hauser is one of boxing's truly perceptive voices and the touching simplicity of this story belies its depth.' The Sunday Express 'Hauser's new book can be read in one breathless sitting...Bringing a spectator sport to life on the page is no mean feat, and Hauser pulls it off, in spare and direct prose.' The Times 'It is raw, painful, beautiful and, above all, real. This is one hell of a book.' Secondsout.com
