Bøger af Davis Miller

This book is not a biography of Muhammad Ali. It's not a book about boxing either. It is something else: more beautiful, more universal. Ali was one of the great heroes of our time and an inspiration for millions of people, whether in the fields of sport, politics or spirituality. Great authors have written about Ali: N. Mailer, H. S. Thompson, T. Wolfe... But none has done so with as much intensity and intimacy as Miller. No one has made such a close, serene and surprising portrait of the Champion's life beyond boxing. Exactly halfway between the best literature and the best journalism, Miller offers us a beautiful reflection on the inexorable passage of time and the corruptibility of all things, while he tells us the secret history of a legend.

The volume contains his celebrated trilogy of award-winning Muhammad Ali pieces, including the classic 'My Dinner with Ali', together with a provocative new essay called 'The Yin and the Yang of Muhammad Ali'.

Muhammad Ali was the greatest boxer the world has ever seen, and the most charismatic athlete of all time. Mesmeric both inside the ring and out, Ali has been a role model, a spiritual thinker and a symbol of courage for thousands of people.
