Boxenstart erzählt das faszinierende Leben von Sonia, einer Pferdetrainerin aus dem Mittleren Westen, die sich in der rauen Welt der amerikanischen Rennbahnen ihren Platz erobert. Lebendig, pointiert und voller Integrität fängt Kathryn Scanlan das Leben einer Frau auf der Rennbahn ein: das flache Land, die baufälligen Stallanlagen, die miesen Erlebnisse und Reibereien; aber auch das Siegerpodest und die Rennbahnbar, die schicken Anzüge, die Lebenskünstler - und die ganz besondere Sprache der 'Stallburschen, Pferdepfleger, Jockeys, Trainer, Stewards, Arbeitsreiter, Pferdeführer - allen'. Die Pferdetrainerin Sonia gibt es wirklich. Kathryn Scanlan hat viele lange Gespräche mit ihr geführt und daraus einen reduzierten, tief bewegenden Roman geformt, der auf faszinierende Weise die Essenz eines ganzen eindrucksvollen Lebens einfängt. 'Dieser Roman enthält alles: harte Arbeit, Gewalt, Leidenschaft und Freude. Scanlan schreibt über das gewöhnliche Leben auf außergewöhnliche Weise, indem sie es radikal verdichtet, so wie man Kohlenstoff zu Diamanten presst.' The New Yorker 'Der US-Amerikanerin Kathryn Scanlan ist mit ihrem Roman Boxenstart über das entbehrungsreiche Leben der Pferdetrainerin Sonia ein hinreißend poetisches Portrait der ruppigen Rennbahnwelt gelungen. Ein fulminanter Roman!' Maximilian Mengeringhaus, Deutschlandfunk

Great top for a great price.
Color: Gray Floral, Size: Large
This top comes past my hips so I love the length. It is so attractive and comfortable and the price was incredible! I bought two other tops by Zeagoo and am very pleased with them also. Beautiful colors!

Love these tunics!
Color: Aprioct Boho Yg9, Size: XX-Large
I absolutely love these tunics! They are very figure flattering & so soft & comfortable to wear. The material is on the thinner side so they are great for warmer weather. I have very sensitive skin so many fabrics irritate me but this one is fabulous. I would wash on gentle & hang to dry to keep fabric looking nice. After wearing the first one, I ordered 3 more…

Pretty Tunic Top
Color: Willowfloral, Size: X-Large
Very happy with this tunic top! Long enough for me to feel good about wearing it with leggings, but not SO long it feels like a dress. Really good V-neck, not just a little notch at the top that some brands call a v-neck. I ordered the teal floral XL and was very happy with the fit and drape. I'm a size 18W with a 42D bust and a chubby waistline. I often end up in XXL or 1X tops, but this fit well as an XL. Nice feel to the material and a bargain at the price!

Very flattering in my opinion
I'm 5'6 and no hips, so I really liked that the length is a little longer and flares a little at the hips giving my chunky but not curvy figure some illusion of a girlish figure. The pattern and colors were pretty & I'd say pretty close to the ad. Great blues and a coral/peach ... not sure my camera did it justice. I like the pleat at the back ... I feel that it minimizes the bra bulge that can happen at times. I stepped out after try on and my guy said it looked great (he's a truth teller with clothes) so that made me feel better because sometimes I see what I want to see at first & later see the flaws. I do see the case instructions ... getting used to hang to dry all things lately. Feels a little more nylon-ish but not bad. Its not super thin and light where I think it's a clingy thing. Really do like this shirt

Nice, but not great fabric quality
Color: Floral Black, Size: Large
The fit was great. Colors were as shown. The fabric shows signs of wear pretty much on the second wear so durability isn’t great. The fabric is soft and light weight so perfect for spring and fall. Not sure I’d buy again as I think it will look worn out quickly.
