Reseña del libro "Curving Foul: A Story About Baseball, A Story About Life (en Inglés)"
Jack Carter, a perennial All Star and MVP, has a secret. While his on-field success, charm and good looks establish him as a Yankee icon and one of New York's most eligible bachelors, Carter isn't who he appears to be. The slugger is one of baseball's modern villains, a performance-enhancing drug user whose cheating transforms him from borderline Major Leaguer to superstar. This fictional story, intertwined with facts and personalities that are both imagined and real, places Carter in the lineup with the likes of Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez and dives deep into every twist and turn their games took. In Curving Foul, Carter discusses not only the great moments that pave the way for baseball immortality, but also the heartbreak he encounters growing up and the insecurities he faces as a struggling, young big leaguer that force him to betray the game he loves. "Curving Foul makes you want to watch more baseball. Frommer serves up great action but laces it with a rare knowledge of the sport -- both the business side of it, and the culture." -- Reid Mitenbuler, author of Bourbon Empire "This fast-paced story pulled me in immediately. The characters, including the story's lead, are multi-dimensional, the relationships are complex and no story lines are black and white. In other words, it's real. Even for non-baseball fans, Curving Foul is a great read, one full of twists and turns. Highly recommended!" -- Dave Chilton, Author of The Wealthy Barber
