No footballer has ever captured the imagination of the world as fast and as furiously as David Beckham. Combining the dogged dedication of the great pre-War footballers with the flash narcissism of the Sixties stars, he is loved by everyone from the teenage girls who pine over his posters to the Thai monks who build shrines to him to the football fans who desire sex with him so shamefully that they wish his wife was a whore and his baby was dead. But what does Beckham want? Is he an idiot savant, or just a fool for love? In this dazzling new book, the sharpest social commentator in Britain tackles the most stylish sportsman and - via sex, class and the celebrity culture - pins down the enigma that is David Beckham.
