Description - The Tournament: Text Classics by John Clarke

John Clarke's only novel, one of the most brilliant comic minds to ever come out of Australia and New Zealand.

The most unusual tennis tournament in history is about to start. Einstein's seeded fourth. Chaplin, Freud and van Gogh are also in the top rankings. World number one is Tony Chekhov. In all, 128 of the world's most creative players - everyone from Louis Armstrong to George Orwell, Gertrude Stein to Coco Chanel - are going to fight it out until the exhilarating final on centre court. First published in 2002, John Clarke's The Tournament is a brilliant, bizarre comic novel.
