A Sharp Endless Need
A Sharp Endless Need
A propulsive and nostalgic coming-of-age novel about the relationship between two teammates on a rural high school basketball team, from the author of I Keep My Exoskeletons to Myself. Star point guard Mack Morris's senior year of high school begins with twin cataclysms: the death of her father and the arrival of transfer student Liv Cooper. On the court, Mack and Liv discover an exhilarating, game-winning chemistry; off the court, they fall into an equally intoxicating more-than-friendship that is out of bounds for their small Pennsylvania town in 2004, and especially, for Liv's conservative mother. As Mack's desire and grief collide with drugs, sex, and the looming college signing deadline, she is forced to reckon with the disconnects between her past and her future--and fight for the life she wants for herself, whether or not Liv will be on the court beside her. Written with the lush longing of Andre Aciman's Call Me By Your Name and the obsessive attention of Jean Kyoung Frazier's Pizza Girl, and with all the romance and feeling of the beloved 2000 movie Love & Basketball, Crane's sophomore novel is a voice-driven, literary treatment of the big feelings of first love, intimacy, heartbreak, grief, and of course, sports.
