Description

"Parallel Lines and the Hockey Universe marks Grant Tracey as natural heir to Sherwood Anderson. But, unlike Winesburg, Ohio residents, Tracey's characters, all associates of the Traicheff brothers, are socialable and devoted to pop culture. Likable without being roguish, these guys live in worlds of asphalt and brick under a low winter sky. They worry over parental divorce, talk with great passion about Iggy Stooge (wonderful, sly comedy there) and Lenny Bruce and Humphrey Bogart, play junior league hockey in the upper Midwest, date strippers in small town Ontario, fall innocently in love, and understand that their grandparents' emigration has made the honest, grinding work of the new world theirs and has made that 'Euro' speed skating and finesse foreign to them. The book is massively complicated without being pretentious or difficult. In fact, it's a hoot to reed--a hoot and several loud choruses of 'All Right Now' after a last-second goal slapped in from the blue line!" -G.W. Clift
