Beskrivelse af Body Language: Writers on Sport
Body Language: Writers on Sport, the second book in the Graywolf Forum Series, gathers thirteen contemporary creative writers who offer personal reflections on our public obsession: from the pool hustler to the closet baseball fan; from late-night rodeo on cable TV to tennis games on the weathered fields of Illinois; from the aging basketball player to the anxious young girl determining whether to strike out the boy who is her friend. Through these individual narratives we begin to recognize the universal themes that galvanize both sport and literature: conflict and sacrifice, ritual and passion, humiliation and heroism.Gerald Early (editor) is the author of The Culture of Bruising: Essays on Prize Fighting, which won the National Book Critics Circle Award.Contributors:Gerald EarlyJonis AgeeTeri BostianCecil BrownWayne FieldsLorraine KeePhillip LopateJames A.
