Klappentext
A Sports Book of the Year in the Irish Times, the FT and the Mail on Sunday
'Unmissable ... T he ultimate book for anyone who loves football' Mail on Sunday
'A brilliant evocation of the joy of the football carnival and the absurdities of the global spectacle... an essential companion' David Goldblatt
It's the biggest competition on Earth. A four-yearly chance for the world's greatest footballers to realise their ultimate dream. A month-long media spectacle that's watched by billions.
The World Cup has changed beyond recognition since the early days, when the players were semi-pros and the trophy went missing. Today, it's a corporate-led bonanza of dark money and dubious ethics. Simon Kuper, bestselling author of Bar ça , reflects on every tournament since Italia 90 to reveal a captivating portrait of sport in a globalised world. Entertaining and compelling, World Cup Feveris the definitive story of football's greatest drama, and of how the tournament can touch - and even change - our lives.
