Of the Week (New Year's Ed.)

Best Book started & finished this past week: "The Greatest Game Ever Played." Yes it looks like a book about golf. But it is not. It is a book about the difficulties and payoffs inherent in drawing upon emotional and physical reserves. But it all takes place on a golf course - much the same way a book might take place in New York City. Though I believe that New York City is more forgiving of mistakes. I could not put this one down at all. (and yes, they made a movie about it, but left out too much I am told).
