Dear Mr. Agassi, I just finished reading your book in complex Chinese translation, it’s such a wonderful journey to read your life. I found myself as complicated as your are, in particular, about the contradiction. However, your experiences and words inspired me so much and I decided to move on and work hard on my own career. Thank you so much and wish I could see you next year in Taipei! ^_^

I have just finished reading Mr. Agassi’s book and I found it fascinating and very moving at times.
I found it confusing, though, that although Mr. Agassi’s father is Armenian, twice in the book he is talking/cursing in Assyrian. As both languages are ancient but completely separate, in Armenian’s case, spoken in Armenia and it’s diaspora to this day,I wonder why Mr. Agassi’s father spoke Assyrian and not Armenian? I would greatly appreciate a response. Thank you in advance.

Dear Andre! I want to thank you for your biography and for telling your story! I’ve read the book in german. I’m working as tenniscoach, in the south of Germany. In our Tennis Academy we set priority in what kids want and respect their wishes and their hopes (their life is now and not only in the future). Now I can tell adults (parents, other coaches and teachers) about childrens rights and about health talking with them about your life and your bio.
