✦ Synopsis


The bestselling classic novel about an American traveler's spiritual journey into the world of golf

When Michael Murphy first meets golf pro Shivas Irons on one of the most beautiful courses in Scotland, he doesn't know that his life--and his golf game--will change forever. But with the first swing of the Scotsman's club Murphy realizes he is in for a most extraordinary day.

By turns comic, philosophical, mythic, and autobiographical, this tale traces the arc of twenty-four hours--from a round of golf on the Links of Burningbrush to a night fueled by whiskey, wisdom, and wandering. This story delves into the transformative power of golf and reveals a unique and unforgettable approach to the game.
