In Louis Sachar's novel 'The Cardturner,' Alton Richards faces an unpromising summer after his girlfriend dumps him. With no money and no job, his parents insist that he drive his great-uncle Lester to his bridge club four times a week and be his 'cardturner.' Alton soon finds himself intrigued by his uncle, the game of bridge, and especially by the sweet Toni Castaneda. As the summer goes on, he struggles to figure out what it all means, and ultimately to figure out the meaning of his own life. Through Alton's wry observations, Louis Sachar explores the disparity between what you know and what you think you know, examining the differences between perception and reality.
Louis Sachar is an American author. He is best known for the Wayside School series and the novel Holes.
