Reseña del editor
This wickedly funny novel tells the story of a man who reaches rock bottom and asks the question: Can a man who has always been his own worst enemy--and is now everyone else's--find a way to reclaim his life?
Contraportada
Early praise for FOOL:
"This novel brims with love of the human soul's possibilities for hope and joy and love and resilience and failure. Dillen writes with the excitement and curiosity of a child and the wisdom and talent of a master. Fool is romantic, funny, sad, sometimes violent, and absolutely serious. Dillen is a unique writer, you won't read anyone else like him."--Andre Dubus
"As compelling as a romping game of tennis."--Booklist
An "assured and sophisticated novel."--Publishers Weekly
"Dillen's prose is astonishing."--Library Journal
Praise for Frederick G. Dillen's Hero:
"Not just poignant and charming but impressively realized as well."--The Times Literary Supplement
"Completely engrossing."--The Boston Globe
"Brilliant."--The Times-Picayune (New Orleans)
"In a busy field of excellent first novels, any number of them first-rate by all the usual standards, Frederick G. Dillen's Hero stand out...this small and powerful story is also strangely beautiful and deeply touching. Hero is an experience, real enough to become a memory."--Dictionary of Literary Biography on Awarding Hero its First-Novel Prize

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. First Edition. FIRST PRINTING. Highly acclaimed author's second novel. "Barnaby Griswold has never been much of an athlete, or even very sportsmanlike; he tends to cheat when the match is on the line. He's not much of a fighter either, more likely to throw a rock than an honest punch. His father had hoped Barnaby might lead a life of dim propriety. But instead Barnaby has grown into his father's horror: a great melon of impropriety, a fluffmeister, an investments player with unbelievably priceless instincts for the next deal. Then he loses everything. Not just his wife and daughters. Not just his livelihood and connections and lunches at La Cote. Barnaby, without a nickel, is banished even from his boyhood summer home, the very last roof over his head. Now, divorced, deserted, flat broke, Barnaby has to find a way to repair his life. Can a fool-a clumsy, self-absorbed, insensitive, money-driven fool-become a hero, the kind of hero that makes us stand up and cheer? In a word, yes." 302 pages. A FINE COPY! GM1.
