The Sportswriter
''The Sportswriter'' is a 1986 novel by Richard Ford. It is Ford's third novel and the first of four books of fiction to feature the protagonist Frank Bascombe, a failed novelist turned sportswriter who undergoes an existential crisis following the death of his son. The sequel to ''The Sportswriter'' is the Pulitzer Prize-winning ''Independence Day'', published in 1995. After the third installment in the series, titled ''The Lay of the Land'', was published in 2006, the three books together are sometimes identified as the "The Bascombe Trilogy." Ford himself refers to them as "The Bascombe Novels."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Bascombe Novels )〕 In 2014, a fourth book in the series, titled ''Let Me Be Frank With You,'' was published.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Frank and me: Richard Ford on his Bascombe novels )〕
In 2007, HBO announced that it was adapting the books into a six-hour HBO miniseries, but HBO subsequently dropped their option, and any future plans to adapt the novels for the screen have been shelved.〔

The novel became Ford's "breakout book" and was named one of ''Time'' magazine's five best books of 1986 and was a finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction. In 2005, ''Time'' also named it one of the 100 best novels in English from the preceding 82 years.
