Overview of Fists Book

Fists , Horses and The Monkey : three powerful coming-of-age stories about boys confronting reality, and fighting to stay alive in a man s world. In Fists , a teenage amateur boxer steps into the ring for the first time, and finds himself in a face-off with Life in all its muscular force; in Horses , two brothers embark on their first forays into adulthood, each learning to play a man s game in his own painful way; and in The Monkey , a young man realizes that in order to stay sane and survive in this world, we have to sacrifice our childhood dreams.Told in a spare and powerful voice reminiscent of Hemingway and Salinger, Grossi s stories explore the rite of passage each of us faces in our youth and what it means to be a man in our time.
