A reminder that golf is more than over-hyped club technology, swing gurus, and Tiger Woods, The Poetics of Golf is an appreciation of the aesthetics of golf in its many facets. In this unconventional book, Andy Brumer contemplates the game and its relationships to art, literature, psychology, and philosophy in wide-ranging topics from meditations on the golf swing and portaits of better-known players to finding meaning in golf course architecture, and the human factor in golf equipment design. While offering fresh insight, Brumer strives to inspire the reader to question some of the contemporary game's conventions and institutions and to think about golf not just as recreation but as an opportunity for self-expression and growth.
