If you are going to reference a Hornby book, Fever Pitch ain't it. Most people will only know the movie, which was semi-awful, and not the book, which was a memoir about him being an Arsenal fan. If you want to sell people on Hornby here in America, High Fidelity is a better choice. I'm only saying.
