Summary
A contemporary American classic - a poignant and hilarious tale of baseball, hero worship, eccentric behavior, and unlikely friendship
Last Days of Summer is the story of Joey Margolis, neighborhood punching bag, growing up goofy and mostly fatherless in Brooklyn in the early 1940s. A boy looking for a hero, Joey decides to latch on to Charlie Banks, the all-star third basemen for the New York Giants. But Joey's chosen champion doesn't exactly welcome the extreme attention of a persistent young fan with an overactive imagination. Then again, this strange, needy kid might be exactly what Banks needs.

hilarious
Joey is hilarious and kept me reading for quite a while. Every paragraph is a read text, which took me some time to get used to. I struggled with the narration, every character having the same voice and often the read texts didn't start with who was writing.
But once I understood it is not a romance, I lost my enthusiasm. The story goes out like a candle: slowly losing light and ending in a puff of smoke.
