There is a screwball comedy energy to the prose. I find myself laughing, but 99% of what is being said is not funny, and about 90% is downright tragic.
Some grounding in baseball is important; none is necessary in Russian lit. I have a glancing acquaintance with the game, and often go years without attending a single game, but I know enough rules and lore. If you don't, I think this would be baffling.

If Don DeLillo, Philip Roth, and Tolstoy teamed up on a book about a family in Oregon in the 1960's, it would be this, I think, but it is still early on.
