- The Natural is a 1952 novel about baseball by Bernard Malamud, and is his debut novel. The story follows Roy Hobbs, a baseball prodigy whose career is sidetracked after being shot by a woman whose motivation remains mysterious. The story mostly concerns his attempts to return to baseball later in life, when he plays for the fictional New York Knights with his self-made bat "Wonderboy". Based upon the bizarre shooting incident and subsequent comeback of Philadelphia Phillies player Eddie Waitkus, the story of Roy Hobbs takes some poetic license and embellishes what was truly a strange, but memorable, account of a career lost too soon. Apart from the fact that both Waitkus and fictional Hobbs were shot by women, there are few if any other similarities. It has been alternately suggested by historian Thomas Wolf that the shooting incident might have been inspired by Chicago Cubs shortstop Billy Jurges, who was shot by a showgirl with whom he was romantically linked, but there has been no evidence to support this claim. A film adaptation, The Natural, starring Robert Redford as Roy Hobbs, was released in 1984. (en)
- Il migliore (The Natural) è un romanzo di Bernard Malamud pubblicato nel 1952. Diviso in 2 capitoli (Preliminari e Alla battuta!), il romanzo narra di un giocatore di baseball (Roy Hobbs) che per colpa di una donna non riesce ad entrare in massima serie. A distanza di anni, il protagonista vuole chiudere i giochi. Tema dominante è la voglia di riscatto individuale del protagonista, che scivola e si confonde nella voglia riscatto di un'intera generazione di americani. (it)
