Biographies
A sportswriter recounts his adolescent obsession with televised sports through the 1980s in this witty and well-observed coming of age memoir.
In Butch Wilkins and the Sundance Kid, author Nige Tassell chronicles his decade-long obsession with televised sports during his teenage years in the 1980s. With nostalgia, humor, and surprising insight, Tassell chronicles his desperate navigation through TV schedules in a hopeless devotion to any sport he could find.
Tassell deftly weaves pithy observations on the changing nature of professional sports with reflections on the trials of adolescence and impending adulthood. Sweet, wise and witty, Butch Wilkins and the Sundance Kid is a love letter to a time gone by and a celebration of the way sports can transcend the screen to impact our lives.
