The Amateurs: A Novel | John Niven

1 post | 1 read

“Brilliant.” —GQ "Hilarious.” — The Times (London) “A novel about golf that is not only hilarious, but gripping, sexy, violent, and outrageous. . . . Niven combines his increasingly bizarre plots, and some shocking behavior, with considerable skill and, of course, large helpings of humor.” — The Mirror From Kill Your Friends author John Niven, The Amateurs is a side-splitting and whip-smart examination of golf, infidelity, and how little white balls make some men insane.

Golf-based story about a Scottish family on the edge of a criminal gangland. Entertaining, with well developed characters - the wife in particular was easy to imagine - and funny dialogue. I don't know anything about golf and I enjoyed it. Head injury doesn't happen until a good half way through. Graphic violence and nice happy ending.
