Coles Outsiders: A Football Fanatic’s South American Odyssey at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Brazilian journalist and football writer Rodrigo Barneschi takes you on a whirlwind ‘away-day’ tour across 46 stadiums in 29 cities around South America. Glowing reviews in major news outlets have placed Outsiders in the middle ground between Nick Hornby’s Fever Pitch and Bill Buford’s Among the Thugs . If you loved those, you’ll love this! This fascinating book:
Provides a critical portrait of contemporary South American football
Reveals how the experience of being a fan there has changed over the last three decades
Brings us the author’s unique perspective on what it means to be a supporter in a continent that is crazy about football
Charts the author’s richly varied exploits as a visiting supporter, from long journeys on dozens of buses, to airport adventures, to confrontations with police or between rival crowds: experiences that have been, as he puts it, ‘the best, worst and most intense moments of my life’
Originally published in Brazil, the book was widely acclaimed in South America both by the public and media.
