I love this book so much. It's my favorite singleton King novel, and it's such a perfect singleton. No more is necessary, or desirable.
Had to be talked into reading it, though, because of the baseball, which I initially thought was going to be a much larger element than it was because of the title. Ever since, I have gone around reassuring people that no, you do not have to know anything about baseball or even care about the sport, really, you do not.
If I were Tom Gordon, I have no idea how I would feel about this book. I have no idea how the real Tom Gordon feels, or could possibly feel. Unfortunately, my Google skills have so far been unable to determine whether anybody has asked him.
