'One of the greatest football novels ever written and a comic masterpiece' DJ Taylor 'But is this story believable? Ah, it all depends upon whether you want it to believe it.' J.L. Carr In their new all-buttercup-yellow-stripe, Steeple Sinderby Wanderers, who usually feel lucky when their pitch is above water-level, are England's most obscure team. This uncategorizable, surreal and extremely funny novel is the story of how they start the season by ravaging the Fenland League and end it by going all the way to Wembley. Told through unreliable recollection, florid local newspaper coverage and bizarre committee minutes, How Steeple Sinderby Wanderers Won the F.A. Cup is both entertaining and moving. There will never be players again like Alex Slingsby, Sid 'the Shooting Star' Swift and the immortal milkman-turned-goalkeeper, Monkey Tonks.

This classic humour novel chronicles the momentous journey of Steeple Sinderby (an unremarkable Fenland village) from the mire of obscurity to national heroics. This unbelievable feat is contrived by the serendipitous meeting of three great men: Mr Fangfoss (who cares nothing for football), Dr Kossuth - a Hungarian academic and headmaster of the village school, and the Wanderers captain Alex Slingsby, a mighty warrior biding his time in quiet Sinderby for the chance to rise once more.

MODERN & CONTEMPORARY FICTION (POST C 1945). "But is this story believable? Ah, it all depends upon whether you want it to believe it." (J.L. Carr). Very strange and extremely funny, this uncategorizable novel is a surreal fantasy set, vaguely, in the early 1970s, during one highly memorable football season. Steeple Sinderby Wanderers, in their new all-buttercup-yellow stripe, start it by ravaging the Fenland League and end it with a phenomenal nail-biter against Glasgow Rangers. Told through unreliable recollection, florid local newspaper coverage and bizarre committee minutes, How Steeple Sinderby Wanderers Won the F.A. Cup is somehow both entertaining and very moving. There will never be players again like Alex Slingsby, Sid 'the Shooting Star' Swift and the immortal milkman-turned-goalkeeper Monkey Tonks.

El fútbol es el deporte más popular del mundo, pero no es sólo un juego, es un hecho social que levanta pasiones y un fenómeno político, económico, cultural, solidario y educativo, cuya influencia se siente en múltiples ámbitos. En Vigo, cuando el Celta gana, los profesionales rinden más en su trabajo; si el Club Atlético Osasuna pierde, se nota una bajada de la productividad en la planta de Volkswagen en Pamplona; varios estudios concluyen que el número de días de huelga en Fiat está relacionado con los resultados que consiga la Juve. Con esta interesante obra, repleta de anécdotas, personajes y datos, disfrutarás aún más con el deporte rey y aprenderás por qué en muchas zonas del planeta el fútbol es una forma de vida

A biography of the English educator, dictionary writer, and celebrated author of A Month in the Country. J.L. Carr was the most English of Englishmen: headmaster of a Northamptonshire school, cricket enthusiast and campaigner for the conservation of country churches. But he was also the author of half a dozen utterly unique novels, including his masterpiece, A Month in the Country, and a publisher of some of the most eccentric—and smallest—books ever printed. Byron Roger’s acclaimed biography reveals an elusive, quixotic and civic-minded individual with an unswerving sympathy for the underdog, who led his schoolchildren through the streets to hymn the beauty of the cherry trees and paved his garden path with the printing plates for his hand-drawn maps, and whose fiction is quite remarkably autobiographical. Much more than the life of a thoroughly decent man, The Last Englishman is a comic and touching anatomy of the best kind of Englishness. Praise for The Last Englishman “A miniature masterpiece of social history.” —Simon Jenkins, The Times (UK) “A fine biography. . . . Rogers has done a wonderful job.” —Daily Telegraph (UK) “Conveying the significance of the author of Carr’s Dictionary of Extraordinary Cricketers to anyone unfamiliar with his books, or what may now fairly be called his myth, was always going to be difficult. Somehow, Roger’s has managed it.” —D. J. Taylor, Sunday Times (UK) “A great success, and more life-affirming than F. R. Leavis’s entire output.” —Independent on Sunday (UK)
