By Anonymous (San Francisco, CA) At the point when baseball is suffering most from the longest strike in history, seven people are deeply shaken by its effects. As the strike enters its umpteenth week, one of those people, the Reverend Josiah Hubert, has a feeling that it would take something close to a miracle to lift the spirits of Americans. Seemingly the last person who can help the sport, Hubert offers financial support to the league in exchange for the right to create a new team. Meet the Miracles – the newest team in the North American Baseball Conference, and the only team with a stadium full of fans.
Ravi Rao’s novel, Seven Lives, Seven Games (Robert D. Reed Publishers, Oct 2001, ISBN 1-1885003927), is a rich and entertaining story about much more than America’s pastime. It’s a story of abandonment and salvation--of the rekindling of friendships--of self-discovery and passion. And above all, Seven Lives, Seven Games is a tale of renewal.
Rao tells the story of seven individuals whose lives intertwine and converge around the biggest crisis ever to hit baseball. At a time when players’ frustrations are coming to a head, fans’ spirits are flagging and network ratings are tanking, the Miracles pull off a miracle. Or do they?
Seven Lives, Seven Games is not just a book for baseball fans – it’s a book for people fans. Throughout the story, Rao reveals the true reason for this novel – the people inside it. We see the fragile side of a major television network broadcaster. We meet an older couple rediscovering the friendship that had been long lost from their marriage. We learn the secrets of the powerful woman behind the charismatic spiritual leader. And we cheer for all of the Miracles as they play their first, and hopefully not last, season of baseball.
