Sucker Punch: Essays

by Scaachi Koul

Signed hardcover copy of Sucker Punch: Essays by Scaachi Koul, published by Alfred A. Knopf Canada in 2025. This Canadian edition is the second printing and includes its bright green and yellow dust jacket.

Koul’s candid memoir in essays considers what happens when an expected future abruptly changes course. With incisive humour, she reflects on relationships, family, identity, anger, loss, and deciding which fights are worth continuing. The book became an instant national bestseller and was selected for several prominent best-of-2025 reading lists, including those from CBC, Audible, W, and Book Riot, as well as Chatelaine’s spring recommendations.

The author has flat signed the title page, with no personalization visible. Grey-blue ink transfer or smudging on the copyright page is associated with the handwritten signature and helps demonstrate that the signature was physically applied rather than printed.

Very Good overall, with light visible handling and edge or corner wear to the dust jacket. The signature-related smudging on the copyright page is fully disclosed; the photographed author-biography page appears clean in the area shown. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description.
