Zusatztext An iconic master in his own field, Christopher Clarey is the perfect writer to wrap up the gift that is Roger Federer's career. You're not going to get a better look into his life, personality, and character. Christopher got close but not too close to Roger to compromise his perspective on this great champion. He shows sides and layers of Roger through conversations and stories that we have never been privy to before. I have deep respect for Christopher's fair and thoughtful journalism Informationen zum Autor Christopher Clarey Klappentext THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER LONGLISTED FOR THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD 2022 Widely regarded as one of the greatest ever sportspeople, Roger Federer is beloved as a phenomenon, a symbol of enduring greatness and yet is intensely private.
