Heart Breakers
by Francess Lantz
Now that Valentine's Day is just around the corner, Luna is feeling the blues. She's been longing to be with her boyfriend, David, who lives all the way across the country in Florida and who she hasn't seen in months. Sure, she and David e-mail, but that's not enough. She wants to see him. Despite her loneliness, Luna gets a reprieve when a tall, blond dreamboat washes up on her shore. His name is Sean, and like Luna he's a natural-born board rider from a family of die-hard surfers. Their chemistry is undeniable, and Luna can't remember when she's had so much fun with a guy. But when David shows up as a Valentine's Day surprise, Luna finds herself caught in the middle of a love triangle! Soon David and Sean engage in an all-out tug-of-war with her heartstrings -- leaving Luna to wonder whose heart will get broken in the end. It's all about a passion for the sport ... and life.
The Fix

Sports Best Short Stories
by
Fiery crashes, gracious losses, and the art of the bluff pepper the pages of this winning anthology of 24 short stories on a variety of sports by some of the world's greatest writers. The lineup includes Pulitzer Prize-winners E. Annie Proulx, John Cheever, Howard Nemerov, and Paul Horgan, as well as favorites such as Joyce Carol Oates, Jack London, W. Somerset Maugham, and Arthur Conan Doyle. Among the usual suspects of boxers, pitchers, and shankers, some uncommon players emerge-a money-winning fighting dog becomes a ribbon-winning show dog; Ecuadorian bullfights drive an American prizefighter to madness; and Simon Templar, alias the Saint, teaches some crooks a lesson in a few hands of poker. Tales of baseball and golf; car racing and horse racing; swimming, hunting, and chess portray themes of love, loss, danger, and ambition as they express the passion for sport in all its forms.

Zip - A Novel of the Left and the Right
Apple, Max
NY: The Viking Press, 1978. 'When Max Apple's first story was published in "American Review 19", Eliot Fremont-Smith and others reacted with an enthusiasm unprecedented for a short story by an unknown writer in a literary periodical. And now, to the joy of all who have since seen Apple's work in AR, Esquire, and other publications, here is the full, fantastic collection' - front flap of first book. Max Apple was praised as 'a one-of-a-kind writer, a satirist of contemporary Americana with a sweet disposition, a congenial sense of humor, and a green and supple imagination' and similar praise by Tom Robbins, Philip Lopate, Cynthia Ozick, Leonard Michaels, Hilma Wolitzer, Silvia Tennenbaum, E.L. Doctorow, Joseph Heller, Anatole Broyard. One would have thought the next Perelman had arrived. One more collection of stories "Free Agents" [1984], and two novels, "Zip" [1978] and "The Propheteers" [1987] --- and the 'congenial humor' stopped. In 1994 and the memoir "Roommates" about his first wife's slow death from multiple sclerosis (and his relationship with his 103 year-old grandfather and his two young children during this time) the reason was revealed. Apple's first novel about 'Zip, an elusive form of human energy that makes hearts leap, cash flow, ideologies tumble, the world go round.' - front flap. x, 186pp. Red faux cloth, yellow spine lettering, cream endpapers. Dust Jacket price 8.95. SIGNED BY AUTHOR. Book has remainder mark bottom edge o/w book and jacket are unblemished. White and orange jacket is very bright, unsoiled and unfaded.. Signed by Author. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine in Fine Dust Jacket/Fine. Illus. by Dust Jacket Design By Janet Halverson. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. ( more information) Offered by John Marston's Book Shop (United States)
