The authors used a style of presenting dialogue between the many (too many) characters encountered in and around the Galilee town where no speech marks are used. No separate line or paragraph is used either. The effect is pretty disorientating. I didn't know half the time who was saying what and to whom. By about the middle of the book I was finding it plain annoying.
A real shame, because I was really rooting for Bnei Sakhnin (the club's Hebrew name) and their town. Unfortunately, the club's greatest triumph ever, at least on the pitch, that of winning the State Cup Final - so far the only Arab team to have ever done so, was somewhat 'missed' as it took place in the season before the in depth coverage by the authors began. Sure, there were a couple of early pages summing up what had happened the season or two before now, and where the club was coming from, but overall I felt that the potentially vibrant story of that dramatic triumph had been completely overlooked. Overall - a nice idea on a fascinating subject, sadly not executed nearly half as well as it deserved. ( )
