Since he was a young adult, Grant Farred has wandered the world.
Born in South Africa, his own personal growth was fueled by dreams
of English football, as a player, and then, when age and reality
set in, as a fan. Coming to the United States at a still young age,
Farred still loved football -- especially Liverpool -- and watched
it from afar. Writing about his experience, Farred shares with the
reader his experience growing up colored in South Africa, moving to
England, and finally to the US, and how his passion for football
kept company with his many moves. Along the way, he talks about the
contradictions of football; how race and class politics mix on and
off the pitch; how Farred's own ideas about what it means to be a
colonial subject is both reinforced and liberated by the idea of
football, and how players can serve as gods and mosnters.
