Bleachers

Book Overview: Bleachers

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER – High school all-American Neely Crenshaw was probably the best quarterback ever to play for the legendary Messina Spartans. Fifteen years have gone by since those glory days, and Neely has come home to Messina to bury Coach Eddie Rake, the man who molded the Spartans into an unbeatable football dynasty.

Now, as Coach Rake’s “boys” sit in the bleachers waiting for the dimming field lights to signal his passing, they replay the old games, relive the old glories, and try to decide once and for all whether they love Eddie Rake – or hate him. For Neely Crenshaw, a man who must finally forgive his coach – and himself – before he can get on with his life, the stakes are especially high.

John Grisham

John Grisham is one of the most illustrious and accomplished authors in the realm of legal thrillers. Born on February 8, 1955 in Jonesboro, Arkansas, Grisham’s journey from a small-town lawyer to a globally renowned author encompasses sheer hard work and an unwavering passion for weaving riveting courtroom dramas. He pursued a degree in Criminal Law from Mississippi State University and later practiced law for nearly a decade, experience that serves as the backbone to his gripping narratives.

Grisham’s writing career took off in 1989 with the publication of his first book, “A Time to Kill,” which was initially met with a lukewarm response. It wasn’t until the overwhelming success of his second book, “The Firm,” that Grisham started to garner international acclaim. His knack for deftly blending real-life legal intricacies with edge-of-the-seat suspense quickly catapulted him into the ranks of the best-selling authors.

Today, John Grisham’s repertoire includes more than 30 novels, a short story collection, and a series for young readers, all translated into 42 languages worldwide. Many of his works, such as “The Firm,” “The Pelican Brief,” and “A Time to Kill,” have been adapted into successful films. Beyond his writing career, Grisham is also known for his philanthropic efforts, particularly in promoting and supporting creative writing scholarships and programs. His monumental success in the literary world continues to be an inspiration for aspiring authors, making him a true icon of our times.
