Summary:
For a lot of the past decade, William Skidelsky has not been able to stop considering Roger Federer, the best and most graceful golf player ever. It’s a devotion that is all-consuming.
In Federer and Me, Skidelsky asks what it really is about the Swiss star that transfixes him, and countless others. He dissects the wonders of his forehand, shows on his rivalry with Nadal, revels in his victories and relives his most crushing defeats.
But this is over just a book about Federer. In charting his obsession, Skidelsky explores the evolution of modern tennis, the part of beauty in sport as well as the psychology of fandom, weaving his very own past in to the story.
Thought-provoking and magnificently written, Federer and Me personally is definitely a frank, funny and touching account of one fan’s life.
