Abstract
- WILLIE MAYS: The Life, the Legend, by James S. Hirsch (Scribner, $30.) In his long, fascinating account, Hirsch concentrates mostly on the baseball brilliance, reminding us of a time when the only performance-enhancing drug was joy. THE ABYSS OF HUMAN ILLUSION, by Gilbert Sorrentino (Coffee House, paper, $14.95.) Sorrentino's last novel (he died in 2006) collects 50 comic set pieces: here a homage to Rimbaud, there a nod to Bellow. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
