ONE OF THIS WEEK'S BEST NOVELS OF 2022 The perfect novel for fans
of The Last Dance, Hoop Dreams and Winning Time 'Exquisite. . .
Warm, humane, and tragic.' JONATHAN LETHEM At his high school
basketball try-outs, nerdy sports-obsessed Brian Blum meets new kid
Marcus Hayes. As a sportswriter, Brian spends the following twenty
years tracking his friends' superstar NBA career. But when Marcus
mounts his last dance comeback, after a couple of years out of the
game, both men must face the tensions of their unlikely dynamic,
and the disappointments of getting older. Praise for The Sidekick:
'There is something so compelling about the questions of whether
these two friends, despite their fraught history and hefty egos,
will rekindle a genuine connection . . . you'll want to know how
the game turns out.' TLS 'Compelling and emotionally resonant.'
Spectator 'Contemporary fiction's best kept secret . . . It's
gratifying to observe someone with a large amount of specific
knowledge not only imparting that expertise, but unlocking some
deeper meaning within it, like a top sports star working their
magic.' Sunday Business Post
