The Blind Side

In “The Blind Side,” Michael Lewis weaves a captivating tale of football, family, and fate. Through the lens of Michael Oher’s remarkable journey from the streets of Memphis to NFL stardom, Lewis explores the evolution of left tackle position in football. His vivid storytelling brings to life the Tuohy family’s transformative impact on Oher’s life, while subtly challenging our perceptions of race and class. As a longtime fan of Lewis’s work, I found myself utterly engrossed, unable to put the book down until the final page.
