ONE OF THIS WEEK ''S BEST NOVELS OF 2022 The perfect novel for fans of The Last Dance , Hoop Dreams and Winning Time ''Exquisite. . . Warm, humane, and tragic.'' JONATHAN LETHEM At his high school basketball try-outs, nerdy sports-obsessed Brian Blum meets new kid Marcus Hayes. As a sportswriter, Brian spends the following twenty years tracking his friends'' superstar NBA career. But when Marcus mounts his last dance comeback, after a couple of years out of the game, both men must face the tensions of their unlikely dynamic, and the disappointments of getting older. Praise for The Sidekick: ''There is something so compelling about the questions of whether these two friends, despite their fraught history and hefty egos, will rekindle a genuine connection . . . you''ll want to know how the game turns out .'' TLS ''Compelling and emotionally resonant.'' Spectator ''Contemporary fiction''s best kept secret . . . It''s gratifying to observe someone with a large amount of specific knowledge not only imparting that expertise, but unlocking some deeper meaning within it, like a top sports star working their magic.'' Sunday Business Post
