Details

Roger Kahn (born October 31, 1927 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American author. He often writes about baseball.His much-praised 1972 memoir, The Boys of Summer, examines his relationship with his father seen through the prism of their shared affection for the Brooklyn Dodgers, a team Kahn covered as a young reporter for the New York Herald Tribune. The first part of the book consists of recollections of Kahn's two seasons (1952 53) as a Dodger beat writer, coinciding with the peak of the Jackie Robinson era in Brooklyn, when Robinson - by then established as a major star and a leader of the Dodgers - still had to confront racism on and off the field.Kahn's father, Gordon Kahn, a radio-program producer, died shortly after the Dodgers lost the 1953 World Series to the hated Yankees. Roger Kahn conveys how the loss of his father serves as a metaphor for the end of youth and his entry into a more complex and in some ways more cynical adulthood.
