A thrilling tale of redemption

I initially read this book on vacation 13 years ago and was looking for a hard cover version. A very entertaining tale of redemption for a Jewish former phenom who fell on hard times. A great vacation read.

A DECIDEDLY MASCULINE BOOK THAT SHOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM APPEALING TO THE FAIRER SEX. ERIC GOODMAN IS NOT ONLY A TALENTED AUTHOR BUT A MUCH LAUDED PROFESSOR OF THE ART AT INSTITUTIONS SUCH AS: UCLA AND MIAMI OF OHIO (WALLY SCZERBIAK!). I HIGHLY RECOMEND READING THIS NOVEL NOT ONLY FOR ITS ENTERTAINMENT VALUE BUT SIMPLY TO SUPPORT AN OFTEN EMPTY GENRE- THE SPORTS BOOK , WITH SUBSTANCE.

that book really had a impact on the way i see things now.

i just wanna say it was the greatest book i have ever read. eric goodman has a great style of writing. the story is great. it just makes u think how could this not be real. when u finish this book you'll see the impact it has on u. it really reaches out and u feel like u know the characters and at the end u wonder what happens to them.
