The only book of its kind, Tennis and the Meaning of Life is a
resplendent collection of the best fiction (and poetry!) written
about this extraordinary sport/obsession. The stories are hilarious
and sad, whimsical and philosophical, lyrical and profane - and
thoroughly saturated with the art of the game. Fathers play against
sons. Business partners attempt mutual destruction by tennis. An
amateur challenges the local pro. Humbert Humbert rhapsodizes about
Lolita's heartbreakingly beautiful game. Tennis is played by
telegraph. Tennis saves a life or two. The metaphysics of tennis
balls is debated. Lovers cavort in a commingling of tennis and
desire.
