James T. Farrell's "My Baseball Diary"? Its all about the Sox, and the Irish south side...

Hmmm. Scroll down on that link, verrrry interesting. Seriously Farrell was a giant of a writer, and Chicago was once fertile ground for top notch writers of all stripes. The novelist Nelson Algren was also a big White Sox fan who wrote some of the most interesting stuff outside of Asinoff on the Black Sox of 1919.

Yossarian - I get it. That's a good one...

 

Major Major?

 

I'll have to read some Asinoff. Never heard of him.

 

Don't know if Bellow was a Sox fan, though he lived on the South Side for a long time. I once rode an elevator with him.

 

Please feel free to give your feedback on my "verrry interesting" blog...
