Author: Jimmy Burns
Burns’s biography of Diego Maradona follows him from the slums of Buenos Aires through Barcelona and Naples to the 1986 World Cup. Reviewers rated it highly: The Economist said it “easily transcends the normal confines of sports journalism”, the Sunday Times called it “excellent and well-researched” and predicted it would be “difficult to surpass”, and When Saturday Comes described it as “elegantly written and painstakingly researched”. Best for: readers who want the genius and the chaos in one book.
