Summary

Rugby League football in an industrial northern city is a life of grime, mud, sweat and intrigue. The story follows the fortunes of the hero Arthur Machin, from the day of his inclusion in the local team to the match when he first feels age creeping up on him.

 

Description

It's about a misogynistic rugby player (I hate rugby after being forced to play it at school) who can only express himself through violence, and has a destructive relationship with his landlady.
