Season's End,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Season's End: A Novel (Paperback)
I liked the novel but didn't feel it was of the same quality as "A Stone of the Heart" or "Mentor." Powerful insight into the harsh reality of major league baseball and the price of stardom. The characters are finely drawn. However, the many literary allusions that Grimes makes through his main character, Mike Williams, are hardly believable for a professional athlete. To retain them, Grimes might have done better had he written this book in third person limited point of view rather than in first person singular. Stunning and almost overwhelming imagery conveyed through powerful use of simile and metaphor.
