網友滿意度:
不論是在學生時期或開始工作後
我對語言一直都有難以言喻的嚮往~~
自英文的從國中啟蒙
能夠用其他語言的邏輯來思考事情
也是一件很有趣的一件事
跟一般人喜歡用吃吃喝喝出遊玩來打發時間
我更喜歡用書籍安靜的充實自己
所以特別跟大家推薦我目前在看的

A USA Today Notable Book
A New York Post "Must Read" Book
"Keenly observed and provocative." - Sports Illustrated
"Trophy Son brings Conroy’s The Great Santini and Malamud’s The Natural into the present day...A terrific book." -Harlan Coben
New York Times bestselling author Douglas Brunt’s third novel, Trophy Son, tells the story of a tennis prodigy, from young childhood to the finals of the US Open, Wimbledon, and other tournaments around the world.
Growing up in the wealthy suburbs of Philadelphia, Anton Stratis is groomed to be one thing only: the #1 tennis player in the world. Trained relentlessly by his obsessive father, a former athlete who plans every minute of his son’s life, Anton both aspires to greatness and resents its all-consuming demands. Lonely and isolated—removed from school and socialization to focus on tennis—Anton explodes from nowhere onto the professional scene and soon becomes one of the top-ranked players in the world, with a coach, a trainer, and an entourage.
But as Anton struggles to find a balance between stardom and family, he begins to make compromises—first with himself, then with his health, and finally with the rules of tennis, a mix that will threaten to destroy everything he has worked for.
Trophy Son offers an inside look at the dangers of extraordinary pressure to achieve, whether in sports or any field, through the eyes of a young man defying his parents’ ambitions as he seeks a life of his own.
