Testo aggiuntivo

For The Man with the $100,000 Breasts (1999):

“If we were gambling men, we’d give big odds you’ll like Konik’s book.” — Maxim

For In Search of Burningbush (2004):

“Few authors write as passionately about the game of golf as Michael Konik. In Search of Burningbush communicates why the greatest sport in the world has touched so many lives so deeply, including mine.” — Jack Nicklaus

“Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid with golf.” — USA TODAY

For Ella in Europe (2005):

“A highly convivial tour with dog. These pages offer plenty of easy fun, but they tug at something deeper as well. Ella tends to bring out the best in people, and she certainly brings it out in her owner.” — Kirkus Review

For Making It (2014):

“Add Konik’s name to Sinclair Lewis, Nathanael West and William Goldman on the list of Hollywood’s greatest satirists. Scorching, burning writing that blurs the line between reality and imagination.” — Publishers Weekly
