A Love Letter to the Love Game : Books, Tennis and Roland Garros

from The Ritual of Reading Podcast · host Alexandra Poppy

As the clay courts of Paris come alive for the 2025 Roland Garros tournament, this episode serves up a tribute to the spirit of tennis. I share three compelling non-fiction book recommendations that explore the sport’s beauty, discipline, and psychology—paired with personal reflections on what tennis means to me. Layered with the ambient sounds of the courts, this is an immersive listening experience for anyone who finds poetry in a rally, tension in a tie-break, and magic in the red clay.Whether you're a lifelong fan or a curious newcomer, join me in celebrating the game behind the game.
