Dispatches from the Sporting Life. by. Mordecai Richler. · Rating details · 53 ratings · 9 reviews. Mordecai Richler selected all the pieces included here. Together they give us an intimate portrait of a man who admired the players and prized the struggle. 4/5: The pieces are a little dated but the writing is lively and entertaining. Warning: the language in the last piece, an excerpt from one of Richler's novels is archaic if you get my drift. The posthumous release of Mordecai Richler’s Dispatches from the Sporting Life, a collection of 20 essays on sports spanning more than 30 years, is like a collection of B sides from your favourite band – somehow familiar, yet brimming with unexpected insights and nuance. Writing about a philosophy festival held in France in late , Richler shows that his ability to take the stuffing out of the pompous never faded, even as he fought kidney cancer.
