CLUBBIE: TWO SEASONS WITH BASEBALL’S BROKEN DREAMERS by Gregory Scott Larson B.A. May 2011, Winthrop University A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Old Dominion University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF FINE ARTS CREATIVE WRITING OLD DOMINION UNIVERSITY May 2017 Approved by: Michael Pearson (Director) Joe Cosco (Member) Joe Jackson (Member) ABSTRACT CLUBBIE: TWO SEASONS WITH BASEBALL’S BROKEN DREAMERS Gregory Scott Larson Old Dominion, University, 2017 Director: Dr. Michael Pearson The main theme of this manuscript is disillusionment. In order for this theme to hit home, I needed the character called Greg Larson, along with the reader, and (for the most part) the narrator, to discover this world of minor league baseball at the same time. This would allow me to tease the illusion—to set up baseball as this grand nostalgic enterprise in the beginning in a way that all three of us could believe it (with the exception of some expository asides from the narrator). -
