I almost forgot to post about this because it isn’t online and the paper copy is in California. Issue #29 of the multiply Hugo-nominated Challenger has been released into the wild of the postal service. In it there is an article by me explaining why cricket is the ideal sport for novel readers. You are free to disagree, but you are of course wrong if you do so.
The zine will presumably appear online at some point, and I’ll let you know when it does, but why not get some paper copies. You need to read it for Hugo voting, right?
Presumably you’ve read Netherland? It makes your point pretty well…
Actually no. I guess now I will have to go look for it.
Yes, do. Joseph O’Neill… I have no idea why it didn’t win the Booker Prize last year… It’s certainly better than the winner… Lovely descriptions of amateur cricket too. Hope you enjoy.
