Beskrivelse
"Trainer" is a "novella" by definition. It's a little under 73 pages in length (6 total chapters), and a bit more than 11,000 total words. The Author's previous eight books pertain to the world of handicapping either sports or horses. And by simply typing his name in a Google or Amazon search (Joseph J Tuttle) you'll be able to look-up his other efforts. The story revolves around an "old-timer" horse trainer that goes by the character name "Pops." And, it delves into many different sub-plots, while still being very succinct in its nature. This book is very James Carroll-esque, in the way in which Mr. Tuttle incorporates a lot of actual events from the past; while also using many anecdotal situations from his own life; along with an unusual use of "embellishing" that helps to make this short story ("novella") quite the entertaining read. Additionally, Mr. Tuttle expresses an honest willingness to possibly collaborate with someone, in developing this story into a screenplay.
