Bu sesli kitap hakkında
A star rookie pitcher is making a statement in his first major league season-but will the secret he's been keeping derail everything he's been working toward? Jess Singer, pitching prodigy and son of the infamous Jewish Joe Singer-who starred on the mound for the same MLB team twenty-five years earlier-is blessed with a plus-plus curveball, possesses immense athletic abilities, and is on the fast-track to stardom. But he's harboring perhaps the most potent secret a professional athlete can possess: his sexual preference. In this briskly paced, highly entertaining novel following three generations of Singers during Jess's first year in The Show, Eric Goodman imagines what life might be like for a gay baseball player. Will Jess live in a confined closet or do what no baseball player has done yet? Goodman charts Jess's path with tremendous sensitivity and grace, while detailing a season as riveting as watching your favorite underdog take their shot at the golden ring. Written with Goodman's usual flair, humor, and zing-not to mention his deep knowledge and love of baseball-Curveball is a feel-good love story in which virtue and a wicked curve triumph over considerable adversity.
