Opis
Terrific. An intimate path through so many of the stories that had a nation spellbound.' NICKY ENGLISH
'The Lost Sportswriter encapsulates everything about covering sport in Ireland - it has lovely bits and cranky bits, events that leave you exultant, people that leave you bewildered. Brilliant.' MALACHY CLERKIN
'Tells a story that is pretty much of sporting Ireland of the last 50 years. Reading has been like taking a trip back in time to my youth and to the sportspeople that shaped it.' KEITH WOOD
There was a time when it wasn't unusual for a journalist to walk into a dressing room moments after the final whistle, the joy of victory or sting of defeat hanging in the air. A time when journalists could ring up a player days before the big match … and get an answer. This was the world that existed when Vincent Hogan entered the press box.
In The Lost Sportswriter, Vincent Hogan recounts and reflects upon a 43-year career at the heart of Irish sport. From the never-ending presence of newspaper deadlines to the golden era of open dressing rooms, Hogan charts and laments how sportswriting transformed - from intimate, personality driven storytelling to today's sterile, PR managed exchanges. Funny, engaging and unflinchingly self-reflective, The Lost Sportswriter notes a changing game for heroes, matches and the words that outlast them.
