Description
The greatest footballer of all time. His full name is Edson Arantes do Nascimento. His mother called him Dico. His teammates called him Gasolina. Journalists wrote about him as the King or the Black Pearl. Whole generations of boys chased after a round object in the fields and dreamed of being like him one day. The book by sports journalist Stéphane Cohen is the first intimate biography of three-time world champion Pelé. It not only focuses on his sports career but captures the life story of a poor boy from Tres Coraçoes who, thanks to his unique talent, became a crowd favorite and rose to everlasting fame. However, even stars are not spared from the blows of fate and the problems of "ordinary" mortals... This biography offers the reader the story of the real Pelé, a man who cried as often as he laughed...
