3.0

If you know Cox from his folk horror or his pastoral non-fiction, this is an odd dive into a very left-field part of his life: a teenage tryst with (semi) professional golf. The narrative of a teen from a progressive family rebelling by hooking up with conservatives is an unusual one, and Cox's wit carries it a long way.

Ultimately though, not much more than a curio unless you're invested in the author's personal life or have an emotional attachment to semi-pro golf.
