Big Sam Thompson
Forgotten today, Sam Thompson (1860-1922) was one of the most dominant five skills players of his era. At the plate, he batted .331, was second among 19th century players in home runs, and ranks first all-time in RBI per game (.923). In his prime, he averaged 25 steals a season. Defensively, he registered 283 outfield assists (12th all-time), and is first among all outfielders (with 1,000+ games) in his ratio of assists per game with one every 4.9 games. Using a primitive fielding glove with no webbing or pocket, he compiled the highest fielding average of any outfielder (1,000+ games) who completed his career before 1900. At age 46, 10 years after his last full major league season, Thompson played eight games for the injury-plagued Detroit Tigers, winning one contest with his bat and saving several others with spectacular catches in the outfield. This comprehensive biography traces Thompson's life and career from his childhood in rural Danville, Indiana, to his last days as a U.S. deputy marshal in Detroit, and clarifies his status of one of the greatest players in baseball's long and storied history.
Communion Town
The Man Booker longlisted novel is a meditation on how each of us conjures up our own city.
Jott
In February of 1935, two young Irishmen walk in the grounds of a London mental hospital. Arthur Bourne, a junior psychiatrist, is about to jeopardise his future for his closest friend, an aspiring writer called Louis Molyneux. Arthur has been overshadowed since childhood by his brilliant, troubled friend. But after years of playing the unassuming companion, he is learning that loyalty has its costs: that old friendship may thwart new love, and perhaps even blur distinctions between the sane and the mad . . . Jott is a story about friendship, madness and modernism from the author of the Man Booker-longlisted Communion Town.
Sam Thompson and Modern Drama in Ulster
This two-part study written in the English language describes the most important stages in the historical development of drama in Ulster (one of the four original provinces of Ireland and roughly equal in size to today's British province of Northern Ireland). The study attempts to show that drama in Ireland (North and South) has always been deeply affected by and involved in the fight for social and spiritual freedom on the island. Against this background, the plays of the worker-writer Sam Thompson of Belfast (1916-1965) are presented as realistic drama of a strongly political and humanistic character, attempting to heal the wounds and bridge the violent antagonies produced by centuries of sectarian strife.
