Classy Divots (eBook)

Here it is, a magnum opus for golf-fiction fans: thirty-seven stories, written over the course of eighteen years (1986-2003), polished from their original online versions to an even greater clarity concerning the spiritual, psychological, and animal aspects of our game. Classy Divots: The Best From Golf's Online Literary Magazine presents ample helpings of R.N.A. Smith's principal characters -- haughty Professor Birdbaum, luscious lawyeress Leslie Brentel, Shakespeare-lover Roger Alcott, and rock-hard pro "e;Saint Peter"e; Cunnard. But, this story collection is more noteworthy for the common threads of ingenuity, sophistication, and wit that spin through each tale like well-struck wedges. If you have trouble picking your driving strategy, read "e;To Tee Or Not To Tee"e;; if you think there's got to be a better way to speed up play, delve into "e;The Wizards"e;; if you ever wondered what the Devil's golfing weakness would be, it's there in "e;Double Eagled"e;; or, if you like to bet on the links, flip a coin between "e;In The Beginning,"e; "e;Plumb Bob Crazy,"e; "e;The Other Side Of The Coin,"e; and "e;Naked Nerve."e; No matter which story comes "e;up,"e; you're a winner. Two classics, "e;A Golfer's Christmas"e; and "e;Cupid Plays A Round,"e; commence a strong foursome of holiday stories at the center of this "e;scratch"e; collection.
