Playing for Pizza, published in 2007, is John Grisham’s affectionate comic departure from the legal thrillers that made him the best-selling author of his generation. The novel follows Rick Dockery, a third-string quarterback whose catastrophic performance in the AFC Championship game makes him the most reviled man in Cleveland, as he flees to the only team that will have him: the Parma Panthers of Italy’s improbable professional football league. Part sports novel and part love letter to Italian food, wine and life, it stands with A Painted House and Skipping Christmas among Grisham’s most beloved excursions beyond the courtroom.
