Sucker Punch: Essays

Sucker Punch is about what happens when the life you thought you’d be living radically changes course, everything you thought you knew about the world and yourself has tilted on its axis, and you have to start forging a new path forward. Scaachi employs her signature humour and fierce intelligence to interrogate her previous belief that fighting is the most effective tool for progress. She examines the fights she’s had?with her parents, her ex-husband, her friends, online strangers, and herself?all in an attempt to understand when a fight is worth having, and when it's better to walk away.
