Dominic Molise, un joven de 17 años, se enfrenta a la ruina familiar mientras sueña con ser un gran lanzador de béisbol. En su camino, experimenta encuentros inesperados, como la aparición de la Virgen María, y decide tomar las riendas de su destino robando una hormigonera para financiar su viaje hacia la fama. Esta novela de John Fante explora la decadencia familiar, el redescubrimiento de los sentimientos y la voz cínica de un protagonista que se enfrenta al mundo y a sí mismo. Una obra que concentra la esencia de la narrativa de Fante.
John Fante was an American novelist, short story writer, and screenwriter. He is best known for his semi-autobiographical novel Ask the Dust (1939) about the life of Arturo Bandini, a struggling writer in Depression-era Los Angeles. It is widely considered the great Los Angeles novel, and is one in a series of four, published between 1938 and 1985, that are now collectively called "The Bandini Quartet." Ask the Dust was adapted into a 2006 film starring Colin Farrell and Salma Hayek. Fante's published works while he lived included five novels, one novella, and a short story collection. Additional works, including two novels, two novellas, and two short story collections, were published posthumously. His screenwriting credits include, most notably, Full of Life, Jeanne Eagels (1957), and the 1962 films Walk on the Wild Side and The Reluctant Saint.
