Screwball: A Novel

“A comic tour de force. . . . This is a novel at once grotesque and hilarious.” (David Shaw, Pulitzer Prize-winning media critic and author of Wilt )“[A] hard-hitting mix of baseball thriller and black comedy.…Ferrell captures the dark nature of modern sports.” (Booklist )“I once said that if Charles Manson could hit .300, he’d be playing third base in the big leagues. . . . It’s a fantastic concept, executed with the perfect timing of a squeeze play.” (Jim Bouton, author of Ball Four )
