Travis Thrasher did...and with style!
I'm not into sports. I wouldn't know a touchdown from a hole in one. Okay, so maybe that's exaggerating, but reading a book about a baseball star and his messed up life is seriously NOT my first choice in fiction. But here I am, recommending a novel about a baseball hero who's an alcoholic deadbeat dad. Why? Because Home Run has a powerful message of redemption (and the writing is drool worthy).
And if reading just isn't your thing, don't worry. You can go see the movie. Home Run is out April 19th in theaters. Check it out and see if there's one near you. Let's show Hollywood we don't need over-the-top violence and sex to make a movie a hit. Let's show them it's about the message.

Hope they will show the film in NOrway.
By the way, I started writing my story and I felt that it was like a therapy to me. It is like peeling and slicing an onion, the more I opened and sliced, the more I cry.
Thanks for the inspiration and your tips. It helps much:)
I've heard of this movie. Didn't know it was a book too. Thanks for sharing!
I've not heard of either the movie or the book. Thanks for the recommendation. I do look for novels featuring inspiring prose, and coming from you, i know it will be.:-)
