あらすじ・解説
How far would one man go for money? How does the game of golf make the president vulnerable? Can a simple game of golf spell disaster for one man? Can golf calm a neighborly quarrel?
18 Holes is a unique collection of short stories--one for each of the 18 holes that make up a round of golf. The stories reflect the fact that golf is far more than a game. From death and glory through to love and valor, 18 Holes captures life itself as much as a sport that challenges and delights so many.
Each hole features a new adventure—terrorism, adultery, shanking, or holes in one; lead roles are taken by professionals competing for major championships, a US president, caddies, and even a tax inspector, alongside mere club mortals hacking around their local golf course.
As with an undulating downhill putt, the stories gather momentum and have many a twist on the way; the outcomes may be uncertain but never without drama.
Whether you're a tour professional or high handicap beginner, the tales will resonate and entertain. The next time you hit your ball into the long rough, go out of bounds, or miss a short tap in for par, you will be able to reflect on one of the short stories for solace.
