'For 30 years I was the voice of sport at The Times - but that's
enough about me. What matters is sport.' This is an autobiography
from which the author, award-winning writer Simon Barnes, has been
surgically removed. He has reported on six World Cups, seven
Olympic Games, cricket on five continents and more than 20
Wimbledons, watching Diego Maradona, Usain Bolt, Sachin Tendulkar
and Roger Federer at their peak. Along the way he had
soul-revealing conversations with Ayrton Senna and sat on Desert
Orchid. His journalist's experience gives him perspective, until
the addictive madness of sport takes over. Epic is a stunning
mosaic of some of the greatest sporting moments in recent years,
which build up to provide the reader with a better idea of what
sport is for, what differentiates winners from losers, and reveals
how sport teaches us how better to enjoy life. This is sport
unplugged. Speaking for itself. Allowing the reader to understand
sport with more clarity and depth than ever before.
