Review

"STRAW [has] the virtue of sincerity and of seeming profoundly felt. Its narrator emerges as a real and complex man; humble in the face of his failures, palpably hungry for redemption....You feel for him in a way you never did...when you were...cheering and/or booing him at Shea."

Annotation

In this troubling time for baseball, when the scourge of steroids threatens to forever stain the integrity of the game, Darryl Strawberry takes us back to a time when the drug of choice for many players was not "performance-enhancing." Strawberry, the beleaguered former slugger and cancer survivor, details his delinquent ways and assures his fans that his recovery from cocaine addiction is for real. He also writes about how he eventually turned to God after his battle with addiction took him to the bottom. Now happily married and the father of five, Strawberry describes vividly the painful process of giving up the habits that once seemed certain to suck him dry.
