Henry Wiggen : ウィキペディア英語版 | Henry Wiggen
Henry Wiggen was a fictional baseball player who was the subject of four novels by Mark Harris: ''The Southpaw'' (1953), ''Bang the Drum Slowly'' (1956), ''A Ticket for a Seamstitch'' (1957), and ''It Looked Like For Ever'' (1979). Wiggen, who was born on July 4, 1931〔''The Southpaw'', by Mark Harris, 1953; published by the Bobbs-Merrill Company〕 in Perkinsville, New York,〔(Imagining Baseball: America's Pastime and Popular Culture ), by David McGimpsey, published January 2000 by the University of Indiana Press〕 joined the fictitious "New York Mammoths" in 1952〔(Henry Wiggen is still bringing the heat ), by Ivan Maisel, at ESPN; published July 11, 2007; retrieved July 24, 2014〕 as a pitcher. His teammates nicknamed him "Author", because he was always writing. ==Critical reception==
The ''Columbia Daily Spectator'' has described Wiggen as having a "complex character", saying that he "epitomizes the American spirit of 'never say die,'"〔(HARRIS: It Looked Like For Ever, by Mark Harris ), reviewed by Evan Charkes; in the ''Columbia Daily Spectator''; volume CIV; number 55; page 6; published December 3, 1979; retrieved July 25, 2014〕 while Gerald Peary says that of all the fictional baseball players in American literature, Wiggen is the only one who "matters beyond the page" and "hangs on in the reader's thoughts, season after season;"〔(Diamonds In The Rough – Mark Harris (An Interview with the writer of ''Bang the Drum Slowly'') ), originally published in ''The Real Paper'' (Boston), October 27, 1979 (p. 5, 8 ,9); archived at GeraldPeary.com; retrieved July 25, 2014〕 he also notes Wiggen's propensity for malapropisms and poor grammar, comparing him to "Dizzy Dean with a typewriter".〔
