George Sklar

4.9/5 (34221 ratings)

Description:This is a pyrotechnic peep show at amateur tennis players--their exposure to dirty buses and dirtier locker rooms, the bribes they take and the meets they engage in, and their loves--often heterosexual. The histrionics here are hepped up in the story of Stevie Kropa who left a Connecticut slum street, came under the tutelage of an older net star whose sex life was suspect, left his first love after a few nights in a farmer's greenhouse and dropped his first wife when his medical school ambitions were disappointed. His second marriage, to a stridently sexy heiress whose father provided undercover money for the "amateur" players, crashed during World War II which Stevie spent in soft games with a general on a South Pacific island. And in the end Kropa was a friendless, washed up, played out pro in a Palm Springs resort. We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
