Pressezitat
“Drama, strategy, controversy, pathos. The rich panorama of emotion. Synchronized swimming? No. Scrabble. Who knew?” —Bob Costas, NBC Sports broadcaster and author of Fair Ball“An engrossing, inside look at the strange and rarefied world of competitive Scrabble. It’s a pleasure to experience vicariously a level of play that I’ll never achieve!” —Will Shortz, The New York Times crossword editor and master of NPR’s Weekend Edition SundayPuzzle
“As they say in the Scrabble world, Fatsis got great tiles when he set out to write this book—a slew of memorable characters, and a competitive subculture as bizarre as any I’ve ever seen in sport. I really enjoyed WORD FREAK.” —Frank Deford
“‘Word Freak’ is a fascinating look into a thriving, cultish world that’s best admired from an armchair.” —The Christian Science Monitor
“Succeeding, like its author, at everything it tries to be, this funny and engrossing book (it really is hard to put down) is as much about competition and the beauty of words as it is about the quirky and . . . often pathetic subculture of word freaks.” —Book Magazine
