The book is of course The Genius by fellow Roarer Renato Carini. I believe a number of other Roarers are also in the process of reading it and for the few who have never heard of it, it tells the complete story of Victor Trumper, one of the most beloved Australian cricketers up until at least the time I began following the game at the very start of the 1980s, but who arguably disappeared off the radar of most fans who began after my own time.
