Set in 1970s New York, 'Bucky F*cking Dent' follows Ted Fullilove, a failed writer who sells peanuts at Yankee Stadium.

When Ted learns his estranged father Marty is terminally ill, they embark on a journey of reconnection amid the intense baseball rivalry between the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees.

The story blends themes of family, forgiveness, and the search for meaning, culminating in the historic 1978 baseball moment when Bucky Dent hit a legendary home run.

The novel is both a tragicomic and heartfelt exploration of life, loss, and the bonds that define us.
