Summary: HOLE IN ONE!!
Comment: Tom Coyne got it right his first time out! He grabbed my attention in the first line and held it through his surprising conclusion. I actually lost sleep the first night reading, as I rounded the turn, and lay awake wondering what would unfold on the back nine.
In "A Gentleman's Game", Coyne vividly sets an affluent Country Club as the backdrop for a cast of diverse characters. He takes you into the world of Golf in a way you've never seen it before, crossing social barriers and commenting on the struggles of each class. He uses a likeable, 13 year old, golf prodigy to delve into the lives of characters we all know and characters we've never met. Using dialogue that is real and to the point, Coyne makes you feel like you are involved in the conversation. Words are never wasted. He makes you laugh, cry, and think!
"A Gentleman's Game" is entertaining, disturbing, sensitive, and soothing. It's a must read for Golfers and non-golfers alike!
Rating: 5
Summary: a must read for men and woman alike....
Comment: As a woman and non-golfer, I did not expect "A Gentleman's Game" to interest me -- but to my surprise, Tom Coyne has written one of the best novels I have read in a long time. Although the story evolves in and around the golf course, this book is more about the people who play (and those who love them) than the game itself. "A Gentleman's Game" speaks to a universal audience, a story written for both men and women alike involving such important issues as race, class, and gender. Tom Coyne has written an excellent first novel-- I highly recommend it!

Summary: chili dipper
Comment: I read the book in one sitting but can't figure out why. There are too many unanswered questions. Great charactors that don't go anywhere. Nice writing style that doesn't really say anything.
Golf lends itself well to fiction but this book doesn't finish what it starts.
