Fishing In Utopia: Sweden and the Future That Disappeared
From the 1960s to the 1980s, Sweden was an affluent, egalitarian country envied around the world. Refugees were welcomed, even misfit young Englishmen could find a place there. Andrew Brown spent part of his childhood in Sweden during the 1960s. In the 1970s he married a Swedish woman and worked in a timber mill while helping to raise their small son. Fishing became his passion and his escape. In the mid-1980s his marriage and the country fell apart. The Prime Minister was assassinated. The welfare system crumbled along with the industries that had supported it. Twenty years later, Andrew Brown travelled the length of Sweden in search of the country he had loved, and then hated, and now found he loved again.

The story is based on thousands of athletes who author and performance psychologist Dr. David Cook has counseled, and the great mentors and teachers from whom he has learned.

£6.99 Yakking Around the World: A Cricketer's Quest for Love and Utopia
As a cricketer Simon Hughes enjoyed not immoderate success as a bowler with a championship-winning Middlesex side. As a writer, his previous effort A Lot of Hard Yakka, a tale of the life of an English county cricketer, won the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award in 1997. Nowadays, Hughes can be found filling the role of "The Analyst" on Channel 4's test match coverage. Clearly a man of more than one talent, Hughes has now chronicled his travels around the cricketing globe as player and journalist. And as a success, Yakking Around The World stands comfortably amongst his other achievements. Having visited every test-cricket-playing nation, Hughes narrates his odyssey in whites with much aplomb. From London to Lahore via the Leewards, and many other exotic locations, he spices his recollections with memories of the local people and hospitality, with most specific and humorous reference to varying degrees of success with the native womenfolk. Cricket has often been twinned with travel writing, but rarely can it have been married with stories of red-blooded sexual desire! Hughes shakes all three into a splendidly funny cocktail and comes up with a winner. --Trevor Crowe

Utopia
South Bay is a leafy, commuter town on the southern shore of Long Island, New York, known for both its community spirit and successful youth soccer program. Everything changed when the town of South Bay lost 48 of its brothers and sisters in the September 11th terrorist attacks, including legendary varsity soccer coach, Dan Dunham. Amidst a cloud of sadness, with tremendous fortitude and resilience, South Bay would rise once again. On long, green grassy fields where they were once innocent and carefree kids, a team of boys, led by one of Dunham’s former pupils, captures the hope and imagination of a heartbroken small town. Inspired by true events, Utopia is a personal, heartfelt story of a high school soccer team bringing a community together in the wake of 9/11.
