Synopsis:
A humorous and nostalgic memoir of 30 years spent queuing at Wimbledon, celebrating British summertime and tennis culture.
Told through the eyes of a boy becoming a man, this is a love letter to Wimbledon and British summertime. It captures the ups and downs on the court and memorable pop-cultural moments off it. Set against the backdrop of the desperate wait for a British Gentlemen's champion, the memoir views Wimbledon as a global reality show that transcends sport and class while embracing tradition. Illustrated by Zebedee Helm, it observes the changing world and the behavior of fans who flock to London every year.
Standing in Line offers a unique perspective on a major sporting event, blending personal anecdotes with insights into British identity and fan culture. It's a joyful and nostalgic read for anyone who has spent hours watching Wimbledon, exploring themes of community, anticipation, and the enduring appeal of this iconic tournament. Perfect for readers interested in sports memoirs, British culture, and humorous observations on everyday life.
About the Author: Ben Chatfield has written for Wimbledon for seven years, as well as for the Daily Telegraph. Zebedee Helm is the author of Kit & Willy's Dogs of the World.
