BLIND YOUR PONIES: A NOVEL

Book ID/图书代码: 14560010B39351

English Summary/英文概要: In the tradition of such films as Hoosiers, Breaking Away, and Rocky, here is an inspiring story about the rundown town of Willow Creek, Montana, and the handful of people who live there with a sense of fateful resignation. One of them, high school English teacher Sam Pickett, is the coach of the school’s basketball team, which has an abysmal record of zero wins and ninety-three losses.

But the sudden arrival of two potential hoops stars gives both the town and the team something to believe in. This tale of misfits brought together through the determination of a man struggling to bury his past is fueled by page-turning on-the-court action, characters you won’t want to let go of, and a story you won’t soon forget.

And the story behind the novel is almost as inspiring as the tale of the small town and its dogged team. Over time, this self-published book earned a devoted following, thanks to the perseverance of its author. Sure to capture the hearts of a vast number of new readers, Blind Your Ponies is a classic tale of overcoming adversity told with humor and compassion.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 这里有一个撼动人心的故事,它传承了电影《球场雄心》,《告别昨日》和《龙吟虎啸》的精神,它讲述的是,在蒙大拿州柳溪边一个简陋的小镇上住了一群对宿命唯命是从的人们,其中有一个名字叫做Sam Pickett的高中英文教师,他是学校篮球队里的教练,然而这个球队却总是屡战屡败。
这时,两个天才篮球明星的突然莅临为整个小镇和篮球队都带来了希望。全新的球场表现让Sam燃起了洗刷过去耻辱的决心,一向无所适从的队员们也团结了起来。这些充满个性的人物绝对会让你无法释怀,当然,这个故事也会让你过目不忘。
这本小说中大部分都是描写这个小镇上所发生的鼓舞人心的故事,还有顽强拼搏的球队。随着时间流逝,这本由作者自行出版的小说获得到了一批忠实的读者,感谢这位作者坚持不懈的精神,当然,在未来它还会牢牢地抓住更多读者的心。本书是一本优秀的故事书,它用幽默和同情的讲述方式教会了人们如何在逆境中克服困难。(兼职翻译-PXD)
