Product Description

Review

"Ignore the dreadful film: this is magic." Irish Times 3/5/97 "Even if, like me, you never saw the point of football, this tape is dazzling." Daily Mail 4/4/97


Product Description

This is a book about identity, belonging, obsession; about afternoons in the driving rain and bitter cold and glorious, unforgettable goals; getting your head read in Hampstead and punched at Highbury; the dazzling skills of the gods of football and leaving your girlfriend lying fainted on the terraces because Arsenal are about to score. It's about the moments of ecstasy in one man's life. And his pain. And it's about the only true question there is: Which comes first, Football or Life?

5.0 out of 5 stars Nick Hornby's confession of his Obsession is Delightful!, 10 Jun 2002
By A Customer
First I want to state up front that I am not a football fan, so when I found out that the book was about football I had no desire to even pick it up, but I kept hearing such wonderful things about the book that I finally broke down and started reading it. I must confess that in the first couple of pages, I had the typical "girl" reaction and I was convinced that I was going to never pick this book up again, football....blah....blah....blah.....but then I really got it..... It's not about football, it about his obsession with football and all of the thoughts, actions and reactions that go along with his obsession. After a few more stories about his "obsession" I started to realized that this book could be applied to any boy, guy and/or man that I have ever known! I couldn't stop laughing nor could I put the book down! Nick Hornby's honest and hard look at his life-long obsession with Arsenal, or perhaps more to the point.... his analysis of his life and how it has possibly caused this obsession is a total delight to read! Then, once I realized that Nick himself reads the Audio Book version of the book, I just knew that I had to hear Nick Hornby's own voice tell his story - I have truly enjoyed every second of the book and the tape, several times over!

2.0 out of 5 stars Own Goal, 22 Jan 2001
By A Customer
Can't see anyone enjoying this book. As an ardent football fan, the media/PR people have led me to believe that this book is a must. Unfortunately, i fell for this... Even for a football follower, this book is tat. It's so boring it's more like a Rothmans Year Book than a novel. If you are not into football, avoid this book like you would avoid dark back streets after midnight in Harlem, NY. You will hate it. It's gets 2 stars purely and simply because i finished it and didn't chuck it away - but this is more to do with the fact that i didn't want to feel i had completely wasted my money.
