The Hurt: The Sunday Times Sports Book of the Year
Autor Dylan Hartleyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 mar 2021
Rugby hurts. It demands mental resilience and resistance to pain. It explores character, beyond a capacity to endure punishment.
Dylan Hartley, one of England's most successful captains, tells a story of hard men and harsh truths. From the sixteen-year-old Kiwi who travelled alone to England, to the winner of ninety-seven international caps, he describes with brutal clarity the sport's increasing demand on players and the toll it takes on their mental health, as well as the untimely injury that shattered his dreams of leading England in the 2019 World Cup.
The Hurtis rugby in the raw, a unique insight into the price of sporting obsession.
'Few have had more twists and turns in a pro rugby career' Robert Kitson,Guardian
'Anyone who cares about the game, in which he won 97 caps for England and played 250 times for Northampton, should read Hartley's book' Don McRae,Guardian

Unswervingly
honest
Few have had more twists and turns in a pro rugby career than the now-retired Dylan Hartley. Never a one dimensional character on or off the field and led England to some famous wins.
Anyone wanting to understand England under the coaches Martin Johnson, Stuart Lancaster and Eddie Jones, as well as the mental and physical strains professional rugby take on its players, should start here
Anyone who cares about the game, in which he won 97 caps for England and played 250 times for Northampton, should read Hartley's book
Forthright and striking
Fascinating ... No one should underestimate his impact
