Air. La storia di Michael Jordan

br. Michael Jordan è stato il protagonista indiscusso di alcuni dei momenti più indimenticabili della storia della pallacanestro. Ha reso l'NBA e lo sport professionistico ciò che sono oggi, a livello globale. Prima dei contratti milionari, delle dirette televisive e del valzer degli sponsor, in pochi seguivano sui media le partite dell'NBA, soprattutto fuori dagli Stati Uniti. Poi arrivò lui. Da quel momento cambiò tutto: fu l'inizio di una nuova era, quella del talento di quel numero 23 - Air , MJ , His Airness , Black cat , The G.O.A.T. - della sua volontà e competitività senza eguali. Dietro al suo mito si nascondeva però un leader complesso, un vincente nato, un capitano classico e moderno allo stesso tempo. Con "Air", il premio Pulitzer David Halberstam realizza un ritratto di Michael Jordan, raccontando l'uomo dietro la leggenda, seguendo la storia del suo ultimo, mitico anno ai Chicago Bulls: "L'ultimo ballo", come lo definì il coach Phil Jackson. Attraverso un racconto appassionato e ricco di dettagli e curiosità, l'autore descrive con autenticità un'epoca di eroi, protagonisti, antagonisti e controfigure che rimarrà per sempre nel cuore di milioni di persone.
