David Storey fue un dramaturgo y novelista inglés galardonado cuyas obras a menudo profundizan en temas de identidad, lucha de clases y conflicto interno. Su escritura se caracteriza por fuertes retratos psicológicos y un realismo crudo que se nutre de sus propias experiencias. Storey exploró las complejidades de la condición humana y las tensiones sociales a través de su prosa imaginativa y sus dramas incisivos. Su contribución a la literatura reside en su examen desapasionado de la experiencia humana y su capacidad para capturar la esencia de la vida moderna.
The third son of a coalminer, David Storey takes us from his tough upbringing in Wakefield, to being 'sold' to Leeds Rugby League Club, to his escape to the Slade School of Art and his life in post-war London.

Román Ten športový život zachytáva niekoľko rokov zo života rozprávača Arthura Machina. So zmyslom pre drsnú skutočnosť píše Storey o úspechoch aj neúspechoch moderného gladiátora aj o patetickom zúfalstve pani Hammondovej, ktorú Arhurt zahŕňa svojou surovou láskou.
