But in Great Britain, it is the real football. No pads, no prayers, no prisoners. And that’s before the players even take the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNick Hornby has been a football fan since the moment he was conceived. Call it predestiny. Or call it preschool. Fever Pitch is his tribute to a lifelong obsession. Part autobiography, part comedy, part incisive analysis of insanity, Hornby’s award-winning memoir captures the fever pitch of fandom—its agony and ecstasy, its community, its defining role in thousands of young men’s coming-of-age stories. Fever Pitch is one for the home team. But above all, it is one for everyone who knows what it really means to have a losing season.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT-BOOK","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":53956559929712,"sku":"978-1573226882","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":53956559962480,"sku":"978-1573226882","price":20.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/8543\/8576\/files\/81OczHu2hkL._SY522.jpg?v=1782742683","url":"https:\/\/antbook.store\/products\/fever-pitch","provider":"ANTBOOK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
