Synopsis
Small Puddles is about rowing, rites of passage, persistence, and trying to find your way. Michael "Zig" Danziger projects a certain devil-may-care persona. But don't let the larger-than-life, hail-fellow-well-met routine fool you - there is far more to his story than being born on third base. Zig's intense experience as a Yale oarsman is a case study on the journey itself being the reward. He was never going to make the first varsity boat, or the second. Not even the third boat. But he worked his ass off to earn a seat in the fourth boat - and became a Yale Crew legend. Small Puddles tells the story of those years at Yale and the people who shaped Zig's one-of-a-kind view of the world. A story of tenacity, determination, and unrelenting sticktoitiveness. Small Puddles is a heart-warming and hilarious memoir, but don't expect to read about what a saint Zig is. He's no saint. And don't expect any syrupy soft-focus vignettes of New England collegiate life. Zig's raucous yarns, spun one after another, are warts-and-all, high-definition windows into the glory days. No punches pulled. Raucous, ribald, ridiculous, raunchy, romantic, and relatable. Small Puddles has plenty for everyone, but anyone who has had the good fortune to pull an oar will feel Zig's pain. Up and down stadium stairs until you can't walk another step? Barfed after crushing an erg piece? Pulled a power ten? Given a shirt? Gotten a shirt? Been up at 5am for practice after a big night out? Felt the adrenaline surge at " tes-vous pr t? Partez "? Stood on the bank to cheer friends at The Head of the Charles, The Dad Vails, Eastern Sprints, Henley? Don't miss this book. Enjoyed other rowing books? If you think you might enjoy a version of Halberstam's The Amateurs co-authored with Tucker Max, or you're hoping Quentin Tarantino might direct the film adaptation of The Boys In the Boat , don't miss this one., NOT a story of overcoming every obstacle to climb to glory. No, it's the story of a guy with every advantage who, despite total dedication to his chosen sport, never emerges from athletic mediocrity. It's the story of how that dedication, that experience of NOT QUITTING, shaped a man who would go on to lead an unconventional life of consequence., Small Puddles is about rowing, rites of passage, persistence, and trying to find your way.
