There's Always This Year: On Basketball and Ascension

Author: Abdurraqib, Hanif

Publisher: Random House

Date Published: 03-2024

ISBN: 0593448790 | EAN: 9780593448793

BasicBinding: Hardcover

Features: Price on Product, Index | Pages: 352

Annotation: "While Hanif Abdurraqib is an acclaimed author, a gifted poet, and one of our culture's most insightful music critics, he is most of all, at heart, an Ohioan. Growing up in Columbus in the '90s, Abdurraqib witnessed a golden era of basketball, one in which legends like LeBron were forged, and countless others weren't. His lifelong love of the game leads Abdurraqib into a lyrical, historical, and emotionally rich exploration of what it means to make it, who we think deserves success, the tensions between excellence and expectation, and the very notion of role models, all of which he expertly weaves together with memoir: 'Here is where I would like to tell you about the form on my father's jumpshot,' Abdurraqib writes. 'The truth, though, is that I saw my father shoot a basketball only one time'"

BasicBinding: Hardcover

Features: Bibliography, Index, Price on Product | Pages: 400

Annotation: "Posnanski writes of major moments that created legends, and of forgotten moments almost lost to time. It's Willie Mays's catch, Babe Ruth's called shot, and Kirk Gibson's limping home run; the slickest steals; the biggest bombs; and the most triumphant no-hitters. But these are also moments raw with the humanity of the game, the unheralded heroes, the mesmerizing mistakes drenched in pine tar, and every story, from the immortal to the obscure, is told from a unique perspective. Whether of a real fan who witnessed it, or the pitcher who gave up the home run, the umpire, the coach, the opposing player--these are fresh takes on moments so powerful they almost feel like myth"--
