Spikes

A hilariously funny, acutely intelligent first novel about a floundering golfer on the minor league circuit who watches his life crumble around him on the weekend of his last tournament. Written in a style reminiscent — in its sardonic wit, vivid evocation of place, and philosophical reflection — of Walker Percy, Spikes is a remarkable debut by a supremely talented new voice in contemporary fiction.
