The Beautiful Dive
The beautiful game has lost its mind.
Set during a Prestige Friendly between England and Brazil at the new Wembley, The Beautiful Dive is a satirical farce that takes modern football and cheerfully pushes it down a flight of stairs. There is Olympic-standard diving, a possibly sentient spider camera with world-domination ambitions, a slime-filled haunted tunnel, a goat named Ronaldo, and one Brazilian superstar who rolls all the way out of the stadium and onto a train to West Ruislip.
From pitch-side theatrics and over-the-top collapses to VAR technology and surveillance cameras slowly replacing human judgement, the novel gleefully exaggerates the absurdities we already accept without question. Players perform. Referees endure. Fans from every corner of the world watch in disbelief, delight, or quiet horror.
It is a love letter to football written by someone who has spent far too many hours shouting at the television - affectionate, chaotic, and completely unhinged.
If you have ever watched a match and thought "this cannot be real," this book is for you.
