Description
Take home a signed copy of Life Close to the Bone, the acclaimed debut novel by Anderson, South Carolina native Michael Spake. A former Upstate youth tennis standout turned attorney and author, Spake weaves a powerful Southern story about family, memory, and redemption. His novel follows John Greenburn—once the greatest junior tennis player in South Carolina—as he confronts his past and the ethical dilemmas of his corporate life in Florida. Beautifully written and deeply rooted in South Carolina’s mill-town and tennis heritage, this signed first edition is a meaningful keepsake for anyone who appreciates Southern storytelling, local authors, and the rich intersection of sport and character.
