Maggiori informazioni sul libro
When it was published in 1959, The Hustler was hailed as the first (and the best)novel written about pool/billiards in the long history of the game. The novel was soon turned into a film that starred Paul Newman and Jackie Gleason. The Hustler is the story of Fast Eddie Felson, a poolroom hustler who travels from town to town conning strangers into thinking they could beat him at the game when in fact, he is a highly-skilled player who has never lost a game. But then he goes off to Chicago and comes face to face with Minnesota Fats, a king of the poolroom, and defeat and the quest to get even presents a gripping read. Tevis was based in Ohio.
