A darkly comic short story about American class divides and coming-of-age regrets by Tom Perrotta, the New York Times best-selling author of Election and The Leftovers.

Henry “Digger” Diller has never been anyone’s MVP - he’s the guy who gets called up from jayvee soccer when the star player gets hurt and who volunteers to take his crush’s best friend to the prom. But Digger is pretty happy with life in the middle of Warfield High’s pecking order. Then, he strikes up a friendship with Carlos, a new student from Honduras, who faces his own set of difficulties beyond the drama of adolescent life. Everyone loves Carlos: He’s a welcome addition to the team and to Digger’s tight friend group. Digger and Carlos are inseparable - until Digger, who’s focused on his own future, thinks maybe Carlos is getting too popular.

I always eagerly await anything written by Tom Perotta. This book holds up to his high standard. The characters are vivid and sympathetic. The story is strong and touching. I could have stayed in this narrative for a full novel. Guess I will have to wait until his next release of one. Eagerly waiting. Thank you, Tom!

Sad

Told in first person by a teenaged boy. The story is about his relationships in high school, in particular with a new boy named Carlos. They play soccer together at school and become friends, but some jealousies develop.

This book is a time machine. The eternal state of high school adolescence with an American accent is perfectly portrayed in Digger. His character development in less than an hour is so realistic. The teen years are long stretches of tedious, boring, repetitious inertia, which the author ignored, interrupted by intense episodes of change and discovery, which the author has distilled and strung together like a string of fire diamonds.

All the emotion of high school in an hour

I just tapped out a review on my Kindle, and dozed off before I sent it. Lost the entire thing!

What I wrote was.that I.can't really say what the book is about, and that I likely perceive it differently than others have. Since it's in the 'Currency' collection, it's focus is on socio economic levels, race, class, etc. I observed that o. the story, but for me it was the setting for a story that had me.pondering different truths about life.

It seems like an excellent platform for one to be honest about their long-ago feelings without anyone assuming they feel guilty or want feedback. Sometimes we just need to process by sharing our perspective. That's all... but it's m important.

The story also had me remembering people whose differences from me shaped my life. I hardly ever think about these people yet they were instrumental in how I live and perceive life.

It had me thinking about different people, acquaintances, that I had grown accustomed to disliking from a distance. Then they became humble.through experience I was not privy to, and I was surprised to realize I no longer disliked them.

The story had me feeling in touch with my humanity while I listened to it. The narration fit the story. The pacing felt right. It wasn't a story as much as a reflection for me. I have a feeling that it will be a different experience for different people.

Subtle Truths abound

well written characters with cool backgrounds about life on a high school soccer team and relationships that are good. the length is my only complaint because I wanted more than what the author gave us

cool short story about soccer

Overall it’s a good story and nothing much to complain about. One thing is that, it didn’t show the proven of all the hard working characteristics of Digger, too less stress was put on this part of the story.

Nice short story for summer to listen.

I really enjoy Perrotta’s insightful prose, nuanced with feeling and intelligence; compact and provocative. This story was a nice surprise, the length was manageable during a busy week for me,and am glad I picked it from the Amazon prime members’ list.
