“I have always had my doubts about any form of divine intervention in sports contests. The power of prayer may be remarkable in many other arenas, but why should God want my team to win instead of the other side? Isn't it insulting to request God to even take an interest in baseball?” WantShouldMayFormWinningSportsSidesInterestPrayerDoubtTeamDivineBaseballRemarkableContestsArenaInterventionRequestInsultingDivine Intervention Book:Roger Ebert's video companion: 1996 edition Source: Roger Ebert's video companion: 1996 edition
“Here is a writer possessing the greatest talent: that of fully inhabiting the lives of others. Spargo conjures up these two as no one has done before. Scott and Zelda become, in Spargo's remarkable novel, not people of history but of literature, and reminders of what we fight for, what we fail to win, and the beauty that abides between. A marvel of a book.” PeopleTwoBookDoneFightingLiteratureWinningNovelFailingTalentRemarkableRemindersPossessingLives Of Others Author:Andrew Sean Greer
