The Sportswriter: Bascombe Trilogy (1)

Author: Ford, Richard

Publication Date: 06/13/1995

Format: Paperback

As a sportswriter, Frank Bascombe makes his living studying people--men, mostly--who live entirely within themselves. This is a condition that Frank himself aspires to. But at thirty-eight, he suffers from incurable dreaminess, occasional pounding of the heart, and the not-too-distant losses of a career, a son, and a marriage. In the course of the Easter week in which Fords moving novel transpires, Bascombe will end up losing the remnants of his familiar life, though with his spirits soaring.

The sportswriter is 38, divorced and trying to live normally so as to avoid the regret that comes with the end of a relationship.
