Event Details

Come learn everything there is to know about the World Cup, meet the author, Steven Stark, and grab your signed copy.

This sharp, fun, and sassy guide lays it all out for both the casual and impassioned fan – the spectacle, the tradition, and the teams. Learn why Spain never wins, Brazil often does, and what the US and Mexico really need to do to win the Cup. It also examines what the first World Cup in Africa will mean – from both a political and mythical standpoint. The book highlights the cultural politics that still make every England game resemble the Charge of the Light Brigade, as one writer put it, and every Italian team a cross between Machiavelli and Michelangelo.
