Inside

''It''s the screaming that cuts you deepest, on your first night in prison. Screaming like someone is hurt. Like they need help. Like someone is dying.'' Wimbledon champion at 17, six-time grand slam winner, and former world number one in men''s singles, Boris Becker achieved huge success, global fame and considerable wealth through his tennis career. Becker had it all - but in April 2022, everything changed when he was sentenced to 30 months in prison over bankruptcy charges. Inside offers a raw and unflinching account of Becker''s life behind bars, from the brutal realities of surviving two of the UK''s toughest prisons, to the friendships and unexpected lessons in resilience that kept him going. Stripped of his fame and fortune, Becker had to navigate an entirely new world as inmate A2923EV, where nothing came easy. More than just a story of survival, Inside is a story of profound transformation. With brutal honesty, Becker confronts the choices that led him to prison, reflecting on his past mistakes, and the price of fame. Through new relationships, hard-learned survival skills, and the philosophy of Stoicism, he begins the difficult journey of rebuilding his life and shattered reputation. A sports memoir like no other, this is the story of a legend that lost it all, how he survived, and how he starts again.
