A Yankee Stadium peanut vendor moves in with his father, a lifelong Boston Red Sox fan, who is fighting off cancer long enough in hopes of seeing the Red Sox beat the Yankees in the 1978 playoffs.
Reception[]
The novel received generally favorable reviews. Joseph Salvatore in the New York Times stated, "Duchovny hits an unexpected home run."[3] Micah Pollac, in the Washington Post, noted, "Duchovny’s tone makes the ride a pleasure. He dips into the waters of love, death, fatherhood, marriage and sex, but he doesn’t go too deep. You enjoy the swim without becoming a prune."[4]
