"Translation of Chilean author's Match ball, a Lolita-esque story of a middle-aged man's obsession with a teenage tennis star. Told in first person, novel's black humor is set among the European upper classes, with cosmopolitan, especially German and Spanish, cultural references. Competent translation by Tittler. Back-cover notes; no other locating material"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
