Marc Strydom Reviews Talking Balls by John Bishop and Tiki Dickson

November 9th, 2009 by Jani

Talking Balls: A Collection of Light-Hearted Writings About SportVerdict: carrot

FOR once, with this review I resolved to read this book cover to cover instead of just skim-reading (for R4,40 you didn’t actually think Witness reviewers read the whole book, did you?).

The main reason was that, with this being the book of my ex-boss and mentor, recently retired Witness sports editor of 35 years, John Bishop, along with Tiki Dickson, the review was a terrifying prospect for obvious reasons.

Happily, reading the whole of ­Talking Balls was no chore at all — and overwhelmingly a pleasure.
