If Wishes Were Horses - Kinsella, W.P.

Clean, tight, unmarked; age tanned; very light wear to inside corners; remainder dot on bottom edge; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Featuring the heroes of Shoeless Joe and The Iowa Baseball Confederacy, If Wishes Were Horses is classic Kinsella, a warm and comic blend of fantasy and reality wrapped around baseball, desire and hope against the odds. If he had to do it over again, Joe McCoy definitely would have pitched in the Iowa State Baseball Championship, for sure married his tough but sexy high school sweetheart, Maureen, and would never have written that crazy story about the UFO sighting. Now he's on the run from the law, accused of hijacking a jet and kidnapping a baby. And he can't quite shake the feeling that there must be a parallel dimension where he's living the life he was supposed to lead - his real life.
