 | Shoeless Joe by Grover Gardner, W. P. Kinsella
Ray Kinsella, an insurance agent turned farmer, begins hearing voices--rather, a Voice. If you build it, he will come, the Voice tells Ray, who intuitively knows that he is Shoeless Joe Jackson, banned from baseball along with the other 1919 Black Sox. Ray builds a baseball stadium in his cornfield, and waits. But the Voice isn't finished. Ease his pain, it orders Ray; in this case, the person the Voice is talking about is J. D. Salinger, and Ray must kidnap him and take him to a game at Fenway Park in Boston. This is just the beginning.... AUTHOR: Grover Gardner, W. P. Kinsella
