Although the book is about football, football and football Hornby’s style of writing drew me to the book repeatedly. With his choice of words, his distinctive (English) humor he gets to me every time.
At times he is really funny, but at other times he can be serious about things happening in the (soccer-)world, like discrimination of players and deaths as a result of vandalism. This makes the book more than just an easy tribute to the game.
I enjoyed myself reading it.
This one is about two boys: one boy age 12, Marcus and one boy age 36, Will. Both have to grow up and they need each others help to do so.
