      *WINNER OF THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR*

      Fever Pitch
      is Nick Hornby''s million-copy-selling, award-winnning football classic

      ''A spanking 7-0 away win of a football book. . . inventive, honest, funny, heroic, charming'' Independent

      For many people watching football is mere entertainment, to some it''s more like a ritual; but to others, its highs and lows provide a narrative to life itself.

      But, for Nick Hornby, his devotion to the game has provided one of few constants in a life where the meaningful things - like growing up, leaving home and forming relationships, both parental and romantic - have rarely been as simple or as uncomplicated as his love for Arsenal.

      Brimming with wit and honesty, Fever Pitch, catches perfectly what it really means to be a football fan - and in doing so, what it means to be a man.

      ''Hornby has put his finger on truths that have been unspoken for generations'' Irish Times

      ''Funny, wise and true'' Roddy Doyle
