Editorial Reviews
Review
"A beautiful blend of sweetness, pain, and truth. Basketball runs through this book like a stream of light, illuminating all it touches." --Rick Telander, author of Heaven Is a Playground
"A remarkable book, open and honest, full of the joys and the pain of growing up." --The Sporting News
"Bill Reynolds is one of the best writers around, and this book is the Friday Night Lights of high school basketball." --Dan Shaughnessy, author of Ever Green
"Simply a classic...every word has the ring of truth. Reminds me of Norman Mclean's Young Men and Fire." --Greg Donaldson, author of The Ville
"Reynolds uncovers, in a moving and sensitive book, the desperate values of a city whose only dream is basketball glory." --James Chace, Newsday
'Superbly observed and compassionately rendered, Fall River Dreams reminds us of why sports matter." --Alexander Wolff, author of Raw Recruits
"Reynolds does a fine job...Fall River Dreams illustrates that sports can provide marvelous highs, but that the joy of achievement can be supplanted by the desperate needs to win-again and again and again." --The New York Times Book Review
