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

Promising Results So Far, Easy to Use
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz, Color: White
I recently purchased this silicone scar gel and have been using it consistently for a few weeks. The texture is smooth and easy to apply, and it absorbs fairly quickly without leaving a sticky residue. So far, I’ve noticed that my skin feels more hydrated and slightly smoother in the treated area. It’s still early to say how effective it will be for long-term scar reduction, but the initial results are promising. One thing to note is that results may vary depending on the type and age of the scar, so patience is important. Overall, I think it’s a decent product worth trying if you’re looking for a scar care solution.

Clearing up my scars
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz, Color: White
This Mitgary Advanced Scar Gel works really well as a moisturizing aid to my ongoing wound care. It hasn't irritated my skin at all and seems to stop the itchiness that often accompanies my healing wounds. What a relief! It’s not too thick and sticky and goes on like a gel that spreads evenly and stays over scared areas with no problems. There is no overpowering fragrance but rather a pleasing clean clinical smell that actually pleases me. Among the formula it has Vitamin E, Retinol, Panthenol and Arginine in addition to the main silicone ingredient. So , as my scars fade away I'm happy with the results so far and will continue to use.

Best Scar Cream I’ve Ever Tried
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz, Color: White, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz, Color: White
Love this stuff! I have been using this scar cream for over a year now and have seen huge results within a couple weeks. I love this scar cream because it works in significantly reducing the appearance and coloring of scars, lasts a long time, bigger product than I’ve found in any drug store or pharmacy,!and is affordable! I used to go to drug stores and grocery store such as Walgreen or Walmart to buy scar cream until I found this Advanced Silicone Scar Gel on Amazon. The only scar creams that I could find at local drug stores and grocery stores were brand names scar creams that were tiny and expensive! The scar creams that you buy at drug stores and grocery stores are in tiny tubes about the size of one finger and they cost about $20 and over! Even the off brand Scar creams I found are $15 plus and are also the size of a finger. This product is great for big scars, continued usage, and works well for post acne scars. This is my 2nd time buying from this company and I will continue to support them!

Amazing product !
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz, Color: White, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz, Color: White
This scar gel is amazing! Feels wonderful on your skin. Helps reduce friction from rubbing your skin, which plastic surgeon encouraged me to do to my scars. He said it helped with healing. I can already vouch for silicone as far as helping to reduce the appearance of scars as I have many from surgery. Most of the scarring is almost invisible now. I have tried many other types of products but this is the best I have tried and will continue using. Good size and great price.

Surprised.
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz, Color: White
Okay surprised this is working so well, as based on the packaging the legitimacy felt low with weird spacing and typos. That said… it seems to be working? I prefer scar tape but have a few spots that it’s tricky to keep on and this seems to working great for that. I generally have pretty sensitive skin and thus far this isn’t irritating at all and it is helping to further fade surgical scars. It also does seem like a pretty good value at this price point.
