Send in the Clown - Andrew Stelmack

Send in the Clown


A groundbreaking look at golf legend Moe Norman, in a way never told before. Yes, Moe Norman did spend nights sleeping in sand traps or in his car, hitting golf balls off of coke bottles, and had an outward appearance that would make you stop in your tracks. But to those in the know, that wasn't what set him apart. No, it was his golf swing. The best ball-striker in the history of the sport they say. Too bad that during his day, it was everything else about him that people judged him on instead... SAMPLE REVIEWS: "I knew Moe well and had the pleasure of spending time with Moe in both Florida (Royal Oak) and Alberta (Belvedere Golf Club). SEND IN THE CLOWN is an incredible portrayal and the facts are extremely accurate. I could feel Moe's cadence and personality throughout the book. Fantastic job Andrew Stelmack. Moe would have loved it!!! "
Garry Meyer, PGA of Canada, Class A Life Member, past PGA National Board Member "An enjoyable and captivating read. Finished the book quickly. Couldn't put it down. Well done." The Golf Podcast Live "Andrew Stelmack brings Moe Norman to life in a unique, stylized way. One of the best golf books of 2022." Alan Shipnuk, American Sportswriter and co-owner of Fire Pit Collective, previous senior writer at Sports Illustrated. "A bold undertaking to present Moe Norman's life in this way rather than a non-fiction biography. Works well at drawing the character of Moe Norman." Golf Monthly "A touching, poignant, fictionally based story based on the legendary and enigmatic Canadian golfer Moe Norman. Moe's story is well documented in biographies written by both Lorne Rubenstein and Tim O'Connor. But what Andrew Stelmack succeeds in doing in this book is to bring Moe Norman to life on the page enabling the reader to really feel the pain, sadness, struggles and rejection he faced throughout his life trying to fit the status quo (especially in the golf world at that time). Kudos to Andrew Stelmack for retelling Moe's story as we can all benefit from the message that being different can be a blessing, a gift, not a detriment." J. Lyons"Eleven stars out of ten! The inspirational book of the year! Right from the first pages I was gripped." J. England, Producer, Screenwriter, Editor Being born with a special gift is often something to be celebrated. But sometimes, unless you are willing to play by everyone else's rules and change the essence of who you are, the door to share your "special something" is more often than not slamme
