The Golficide, and Other Tales of the Fair Green (Forgotten Books) – Classic Golf Fiction Reprint

Discover a Classic Evening Read for Golf Enthusiasts

This Forgotten Books reprint brings back a selection of golf-themed tales set around the fair green, blending humor, tension, and reflective mood. The leading story follows Morgan Gordon as he hands over his putter and surveys the end of a long, uncertain season, inviting readers to revisit two years of near-misses, careful strategy, and quiet resolve against a backdrop of greens, clubs, and clubhouse rituals. The collection offers a window into vintage sport fiction, where the rhythm of the game mirrors the pace of life itself.

Beyond the single featured tale, the volume curates a suite of narratives that capture the spirit of the fair green: camaraderie among players, the hush before a decisive stroke, and the small triumphs that stay with a reader long after the last page is turned. This edition invites both golf lovers and fans of classic storytelling to linger on the page and imagine the landscape described with tangible texture—the feel of wind, the scent of grass, and the soft thud of a well-timed putt.
