Legendary tennis star and expert commentator John McEnroe´s long-awaited follow-up to the Sunday Times and international bestseller Serious.
The wildly entertaining Sunday Times bestseller
´This book deserves to be seeded No. 1´ Daily Mail
Fifteen years after his massive bestseller Serious, John McEnroe is back and ready to talk.
Who are the game´s winners and losers? What´s it like playing guitar onstage with the Rolling Stones, hitting balls with today´s greats, breaking bread with his former on-court nemeses, getting scammed by an international art dealer, and raising a big family while balancing McEnroe-sized expectations?
But Seriously is a richly personal account, blending anecdote and reflection with razor sharp and brutally honest opinions. This is the sports book of the year: brilliantly funny, surprisingly touching, and 100% McEnroe.
The follow up volume to 2002´s best-selling Serious, and every bit as entertaining. McEnroe is just as brash and as opinionated as you might expect, but he has a saving grace: behind all the bluster, he seems to be a genuinely nice bloke Marcus Berkmann DAILY MAIL 20171215
