James's classic Beyond a Boundary celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of one of the greatest books on sport and culture ever written.Named one of the Top 50 Sports Books of All Time by Sports Illustrated\"Beyond a Boundary . . . should find its place on the team with Izaak Walton, Ivan Turgenev, A. J. Liebling, and Ernest Hemingway.\"-Derek Walcott, The New York Times Book Review\"As a player, James the writer was able to see in cricket a metaphor for art and politics, the collective experience providing a focus for group effort and individual performance. . . . [In] his scintillating memoir of his life in cricket, Beyond a Boundary (1963), James devoted some of his finest pages to this theme.\"-Edward Said, The Washington Post\"A work of double reverence-for the resilient, elegant ritualism of cricket and for the black people of the world.\"-Whitney Balliett, The New Yorker\"Beyond a Boundary isa book of remarkable richness and force, which vastly expands our understanding of sports as an element of popular culture in the Western and colonial world.\"-Mark Naison, The Nation\"Everything James has done has had the mark of originality, of his own flexible, sensitive, and deeply cultured intelligence. He conveys not a rigid doctrine but a delight and curiosity in all the manifestations of life, and the clue to everything lies in his proper appreciation of the game of cricket.\"-E. P. Thompson, author of The Making of the English Working Class\"Beyond a Boundary is . . . first and foremost an autobiography of a living legend-probably the greatest social theorist of our times.\"-Manning Marable, Journal of Sport \u0026amp; Social Issues\"The great triumph of Beyond a Boundary is its ability to rise above genre and in its very form explore the complex nature of colonial West Indian society.\"-Caryl Phillips, The New Republic\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49681412096240,"sku":"NEW0822355639","price":25.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/beyond-a-boundary-50th-anniversary-edition-the-c-l-r-james-archives","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
