Faithful

Two Diehard Boston Red Sox Fans Chronicle the Historic 2004 Season

customer reviews

Early in 2004, two writers and Red Sox fans, Stewart O'Nan and Stephen King, decided to chronicle the upcoming season, one of the most hotly anticipated in baseball history. They would sit together at Fenway. They would exchange emails. They would write about the games. And, as it happened, they would witness the greatest comeback ever in sports, and the first Red Sox championship in eighty-six years. What began as a Sox-filled summer like any other is now a fan's notes for the ages.

– Frank Mosher, The Boston Globe

“King and O'Nan are the kind of fans who make for great baseball companions: know-ledgeable, opinionated, funny, and irreverent.”

– Bob Minzesheimer, USA Today

“A sweet romance...the details are priceless.”

– Kyle Smith, People

“Faithful is ultimately a quasi-religious book about what all great religions should be founded upon: love -- in all its blindness and terror and euphoria and purity and, yes, addiction.”

– Dennis Lehane, Entertainment Weekly
