Fatherless and fretful, the Young Man is trying to nurture a precarious new relationship and to find his place in the world. The Old Man, an increasingly isolated caregiver for his fading wife, knows he has little left to look forward to. Neither fan is a comfortable talker. However, in a slow-motion play of nods, silences and guarded chats, they strike up a tentative friendship across the generational gap. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Told through 38 chapters-one for each game of the Premier League campaign-\u003ci\u003eSeason \u003c\/i\u003eis a lyrical, hypnotic and gently uplifting study of loneliness and modern masculinity.
