"La madrugada de San Valentín de 2013 cuatro disparos conmocionaron a la ciudad de Pretoria: Oscar Pistorius, el mayor héroe sudafricano después de Mandela, mataba a su novia, la célebre modelo y presentadora Reeva Steenkamp. Cinco días más tarde, el joven atleta era acusado de homicidio. Pero, ¿qué sucedió en realidad aquella noche? Pistorius no niega que fuera él quien mató a la bella modelo, pero su versión de los hechos apunta a un terrible error: la confundió con un ladrón. Desde entonces, el hombre de las piernas de titanio compite en la carrera más importante de su vida: la de defender su inocencia. Sin embargo, ¿quién le cree a Pistorius?"--Amazon.com.
Oscar Pistorius made history as the first amputee to compete against able-bodied runners at the 2012 London Olympics. But less than a year later, Pistorius rocked the world once again when he shot his girlfriend, model Reeva Steenkamp, through a closed bathroom door in the early hours of February 14, 2013. Charged with murder, he claimed self-defense, contending that he had acted in a blind panic, imagining an intruder had broken in. Carlin follows the trials of this fallen champion, detailing his fraught upbringing against the story of South Africa, a young democracy stained by a history of racial disparity and levels of criminal violence that are among the highest in the world.
