Recensione


“A poignant, revealing and useful essay on sports and fatherhood.” –Robert Lipsyte, New York Times

“A beautiful book . . . will strike a universal chord in anyone who ever played ball in the backyard, had a kid in Little League, or rooted for a professional team.” –Associated Press

The Way Home is a lovely book, a witty and heartfelt homage to unlikely heroes.” –Philadelphia Inquirer

“Henry Dunow’s The Way Home follows in the worthy tradition of Donald Hall’s Fathers Playing Catch with Sons, with a lively spicing of Sholem Aleichem. An unusual and worthwhile story.” –Roger Kahn, author of The Boys of Summer
