You won't always get the girl! Life is rejection and pain and loss...'A Fan's Notes - the horrible and hilarious account of a long failure. Our narrator is the ultimate unreconstructed male. His primary concerns are alcohol, sex and the New York Giants. But things go very wrong for him - he drinks too much, he's impotent and the Giants start to loose. And so we follow his boozy trail through two failed marriages, many bars and intermittent visits to Avalon Valley - a private home for the mentally ill. Shockingly politically incorrect, terribly self-indulgent but more than redeemed by its unremitting honesty and insight this is the unforgettable story of a man laid bare.\u003cbr\u003e\n      Review      \u003cbr\u003e\nA Fan's Notes is one man's life written with brilliance and insight. No one should have had Exley's life, and no one who has read it can forget it -- James Dickey\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWriters of every kind of aesthetic and cultural persuasion talk about it and press it on their friends. When I urge it on a friend who asks what it is about or what it is like, I say read it, just read it -- Geoffrey Wolff\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAstonishing... It is visceral and intimate. Self-absorbed, it is also searingly perceptive about what happens between fathers and sons, men and women ―\u003cbr\u003e\nIndependent\u003cbr\u003e\n      About the Author      \u003cbr\u003e\nFred Exley is the author of\u003cbr\u003e\nA Fan's Notes,\u003cbr\u003e\nPages from a Cold Island and\u003cbr\u003e\nLast Notes from Home.
