A Golfing Memoir. Shortlisted for the William Hill Award. A BBC Radio 4 'Book of the Week'. Inspired to pick up his golfing clubs again after a 35-year off-and-on hiatus from the game, Greig travels to 18 courses on his road to recovery from a near-fatal illness. "Here, golf isn't a metaphor for life – it is life. Sculpted in luminous prose, which echoes his work as one of Scotland's leading poets and novelists, this is a beautiful, affecting piece of work." –The Scotsman
