In the Sky: A fantasia about rowing
Imagine Dead Poets' Society, but with an eight-man crew instead of an English class, and a coach instead of a teacher. Get In the Sky literature books for free.
In place of Whitman, the coach draws on Plato's Allegory of the Cave. As Topher Bordeau wrote in Rowing News, IN THE SKY is "...reminiscent of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance-an intermittent discourse on religion and spirituality wrapped around a journey. Through the perspective of walk-on Bozzy, Slocum weaves ideas-both fundamental and tangential to rowing-through a promising crew's pursuit of excellence." IN THE SKY is meant for a general audience. It is about rowing in the sense that MOBY DICK is about whaling. The short, smoothly written story is nearly a poem itself. The characterizations are concise Check In the Sky our best literature books for 2013. All books are available in pdf format and downloadable from rapidshare, 4shared, and mediafire.
