About This Book

The stories in this collection range in tone from zaniness to pathos. It's hard to choose a favorite…Highly recommended."—Library Journal

 


From "Reports Concerning the Death of the Seattle Albatross Are Somewhat Exaggerated," about a mascot from outer space, to "K-Mart," about boyhood, baseball, and betrayals, this collection of short fiction comes from the award-winning author of Shoeless Joe—basis for the movie Field of Dreams and one of Sports Illustrated's "100 Greatest Sports Books."


 


These literary gems vary widely in their themes, yet each captures in one way or another the joy and poignancy of America's pastime, and reminds us of why W.P. Kinsella is so beloved by those who love sports—or just outstanding literature.
