Fever Pitch

Fever Pitch

by NickHornby (Author)

Synopsis

For many people watching football is mere entertainment; to some it's more like a ritual; but to others, its highs and lows provide a narrative to life itself. For Nick Hornby's devotion to the game has provided one of the few constants in a life where the meaningful things - like growing up, leaving home and forming relationships - have rarely been as simple or as uncomplicated as his love for Arsenal.
