Title: MITCH ALBOM SHOULDN'T WRITE ABOUT THE LAW
Product review: This was a poor attempt to recreate the magic of THE JUNCTION BOYS, which it failed terribly to do. In fact the best book out about a high school football team out right now is AROUND ELVIS by Thorne Peters, about the kids over at Elvis High School in Memphis winning big for the King. Grisham's cover of a high school football squad's melancholy reunion where they flashback, recriminate, and lament, is convoluted and dull. The old, "We hated the coach but we loved to play for him," tale is corny and cliché and was worn out by the Green Bay Packers.
