description: Stewart Hope is struggling to cope with the physical and emotional consequences of shattering his spine in a car accident. As Stewart strives to rebuild his life, his son Shane is establishing a burgeoning reputation as a supremely talented footballer. Sweet Left Foot is a story that takes the reader on a roller coaster ride into the sometimes confrontational world of kids’ football. Unsanitized, exhilarating, contentious, and at times profoundly humorous; this is a truly shocking insight into a world of parental ambition and spiteful recrimination. Stewart’s unswerving belief in his son’s talent is the rock on which his tentative recovery is anchored. When Stewart’s morale is delivered a shattering blow and his world begins unravel, Sarah, his stoic and long-suffering wife, emerges as a pillar of strength, holding the family together, when, amidst the confusion of a compelling climax, she succeeds in averting a potentially devastating tragedy.
