Synopsis
"Unexpectedly funny… a clever ride through tech, golf, and pure creativity."
"A love letter to human ingenuity—with a dimpled narrator you won’t forget."
"Entertaining, intelligent, and yes—full of real golf physics."
What if the idea that transformed golf came not from a brilliant engineer—but from the golf ball itself?
Meet Flogi: well travelled, sharply observant and considerably more intelligent than anyone suspects. He has survived wayward drives, deep rough, careless owners and journeys across half the world. Along the way, he passes between four very different friends: Sandeep, a playful Google technologist; John, a fiercely competitive aviation innovator; Henk, an eccentric space engineer; and Alan, the methodical systems expert trying to keep everyone grounded.
Flogi watches as their lives intersect through golf, friendship and a seemingly impossible idea: to create the ultimate intelligent golf ball.
From California fairways and European aerospace laboratories to India’s technology industry, their accidental collaboration grows into an ambitious international venture. But clever inventions attract rivalry, inflated promises and spectacular opportunities for things to go wrong—and Flogi has opinions about all of it.
Narrated by the most unusual member of the team, Adventures of a Golf Ball is a fast-moving, warm and witty story about human ingenuity, technological ambition and the friendships that survive both.
Perfect for readers who enjoy intelligent comedy, international adventures, golf, technology—and narrators with plenty of dimples and attitude.

Adventures of a Golf Ball (Paperback)

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. "Unexpectedly funny. a clever ride through tech, golf, and pure creativity." "A love letter to human ingenuity-with a dimpled narrator you won't forget." "Entertaining, intelligent, and yes-full of real golf physics." What if the most important story in Silicon Valley wasn't told by a person. but by a golf ball? Meet Flogi-a surprisingly sentient, sharply observant, and accidentally heroic golf ball. Launched from California fairways into the wild world of aerospace labs, startup pitches, and AI-powered chaos, Flogi becomes the unlikeliest guide through the brilliant (and broken) minds of the people trying to launch him-and themselves-somewhere greater. Adventures of a Golf Ball is a smart, fast-paced, and hilarious satire that readers call "intelligent," "heartwarming," and "ingenious." Blending absurdist humor with golf physics, tech dreams, and very human flaws, this is a novel for fans of Douglas Adams, Ted Lasso, and anyone who's ever wondered if a golf ball could outthink a VC. Intelligent humor Golf-tech adventure A surprisingly moving journey through innovation and absurdity Join Flogi and discover a story that rolls further than any drive you've ever hit.
