Recenzii
This book sees the poetry of the pool game . . . Fast Eddie's ascent up the ladder from pool shark to full-time hustler is the story of the will to power, told in cool fifties style
If Hemingway had the passion for pool that he had for bullfighting, his hero might have been Eddie Felson
A wonderful hymn to the last true era when men of substance played pool with a vengeance
A fine, swift, wanton, offbeat novel
Tevis writes a stark, cut-down prose that admirably suits his tale of people who live on the edge of desperation in fifties Chicago
