Extractions: Buy and instantly download this paper now This paper reviews and analyzes W.P. Kinsella's first novel, "Shoeless Joe" and includes an insightful look into the history of baseball. Written in 2006; 2,080 words; 5 sources; APA; Paper Summary: The writer of this paper describes Kinsella's "Shoeless Joe" as an imaginative baseball story that naturally weaves together fact and fantasy. The plot of the novel revolves around Ray Kinsella, a baseball loving farmer from Iowa whose also a radical and creative thinker. One day Ray hears a strange voice saying, "If you build it, he will come". Ray thinks the "he" refers to baseball legend Shoeless Joe Jackson. This paper examines the author's use of baseball as a metaphor and how he uses the game to tell us more about who we are and what we require. This paper also gives a detailed history of baseball and the American fascination with this sport. From the Paper: "With statistics like that many have wondered how he has been charged of throwing games. After the ban of Shoeless Joe from baseball, out of fable and legend, with each passing year, his figure as a player grew mostly. Time feeds nostalgia according to Seymour; as each generation of players move away into the past, it slowly becomes surrounded in a fabric of fiction. Shoeless Joe became a legendary hero in baseball history due to his glittering past. The following all had a say to his legend: his nickname, his bat named "Black Betsy", and the way people spoke of their memories of him. This mythical stature is so strong that after sixty years, the society presented him a fair trial and a renaissance through literature and film. (Kurt, 2001)"

Extractions: Shoeless Joe , by W. P. Kinsella skip to main skip to sidebar Films, books, current events, my life and times. A novel about male wish fulfillment, W. P. Kinsella's Shoeless Joe (1982) is a kind of adult fairy tale about a man who obeys the injunction of a voice what whispers various messages. The most famous message is "If you build it, they will come." Ray Kinsella is the novel's main character. He has a wife named Annie and a young daughter named Karin and both are perfect. Despite the fact that he is on the verge of bankruptcy throughout the novel, when Ray tells Annie that he wants to use valuable acreage to build a baseball field, she agrees. Later when he tells her that he wants to take a tour of various famous baseball fields in the Midwest and east, she agrees again. She never doubts his most foolish plans, and he is full of them. But the nature of the novel is that foolish plans are often the right plans. Kinsella clearly loves baseball and sees it as a metaphor for the American Dream. If you don't see the aptness of the analogy, then the novel will not work for you. If you don't believe that J. D. Salinger, the reclusive novelist, would allow himself to be talked into leaving his home with Kinsella in order to see a baseball field where the famous members of the 1919 Chicago White Sox come back to life to play baseball again, then the novel is not for you. Shoeless Joe requires one to suspend disbelief on all sorts of levels. If you can do that, the experience is entertaining and sometimes moving. I'm a sucker for any novel that depicts the reunion of a son with his long-dead father.

Extractions: Review this title Shoeless Joe is the soul-stirring novel on which the movie Field of Dreams is based, though like most such relationships, the book is far better than the screen adaptation. It is more than just another baseball story. It is about the love and the power of dreams to make people come alive. Shoeless Joe is the great Joe Jackson, one of the eight members of the 1919 Chicago White Sox who were banned from baseball when it was determined that they threw the series.
