Publisher's Summary:
All he ever wanted was to be the best in baseball. Roy Hobbs, the protagonist of The Natural, announces this dream aloud - a display of hubris that invites divine retribution. Stricken down in his first attempt, Hobbs gets a second chance, as Bernard Malamud brilliantly raises all the passion and craziness and fanaticism of baseball to its ordained place in mythology. This is one of the few American novels that uses popular folk material in the interest of serious fiction, and the reverberations of the story carry far beyond the baseball park.
