Book Description
while it's normally paramount to keep the mind totally devoid of distractions during the game, I had achieved the exact opposite. I'd kept my mind totally devoid of golf
It's the club championship final. Eighteen holes played, eighteen to go and it's all square. But for Peter Christie this is not just any game of golf. It is the culmination of a six-week campaign to justify his need to play. And he should not even be there. It is his wedding anniversary.
Needles to say, his concentration is not what it should be. Instead of seeing his ball, all he can see is his wife, Helen. And if this isn't bad enough, he is pitted in the match against Terry, a conniving, obnoxious bore. Golf without Guilt is a very funny and absorbing analysis of human foibles, played out over eighteen holes. This is the game from hell because Peter is not just playing for the club championship, he is playing for his marriage and for his own sanity.
Martin O'Connor has written the definitive exploration of the golf fanatic's mind. What makes an addict tick? What is it like to live with one? What is it like to play like one? What is it like to play like one? What is it like to be continually 'misunderstood.? And ultimately, as Peter Christie asks himself, "Will I ever be able to play golf without guilt?"
This is the book for every husband who loves golf and every wife who can't understand why. It is eighteen holes in the life of a married golfer.
