book review: Scratch

by Troon Mcallister features Eddie Caminetti, a timeless protagonist in an incredibly inventive story about golf balls that grabs your interest and doesn't let go. With the exception of the “Fat” Albert Auberlane character exposition (which came across a little awkward) the overall pace suit’s the genre nicely. In contrast to another Eddie Caminetti novel: ‘Barranca’, a schizophrenic tale which half-way through had yet to find an intelligible plot line.

If you only read one book about golf (and I have) go with 'Scratch'!
