First published in 1974, The Front Runner raced to international acclaim - the first novel about gay love to become popular with mainstream.
In 1975, coach Harlan Brown is hiding from his past at an obscure New York college, after he was fired from Penn State University on suspicion of being gay. A tough, lonely ex-Marine of 39, Harlan has never allowed himself to love another man.
Then Billy Sive, a brilliant young runner, shows up on his doorstep. He and his two comrades, Vince Matti and Jacques LaFont, were just thrown off a major team for admitting they are gay. Harlan knows that, with proper training, Billy could go to the '76 Olympics in Montreal. He agrees to coach the three boys under strict conditions that thwart Billy's growing attraction for his mature but compelling mentor. The lean, graceful frontrunner with gold-rim glasses sees directly into Harlan's heart. Billy's gentle and open acceptance of his sexuality makes Harlan afraid to confront either the pain of his past, or the challenges which lay in wait if their intimacy is exposed.
But when Coach Brown finds himself falling in love with his most gifted athlete, he must combat his true feelings for Billy or risk the outrage of the entire sports world - and their only chance at Olympic gold.

評分真没想到京东上还可以买到台湾出版的图书，之前已经买过一本感觉不错，那是横排本，属于游说读物。但台版小说一般都是竖排繁体，作为大陆读者，恐怕阅读速度很难提上去。 阅读这本书的大部分时间里我都很开心：选材大胆、文风细腻，情色小说与经典文学、言情作品和色情小说都...

不錯 但還是沒有city pillar好看
评分不錯 但還是沒有city pillar好看
评分寫得很平淡 文字樸實 但是架不住情節狗血 話說像Billy這種完美男朋友（居然是處女座，扳迴一城）真是人見人愛花見花開啊 看這個書的年代就已經知道必須會寫同誌大軍的壓迫掙紮和反抗 就跟青春文學必須經曆“陣痛成長”一樣 就跟韓劇女主時不時會白血病一樣 並沒有很不好 也沒有特彆好
评分不錯 但還是沒有city pillar好看
评分曆史地位還是要承認的，但內容上雷點也有點太密集瞭。這故事當年 Paul Newman 一心要拉著 Robert Redford 拍，但 Robert Redford 不怎麼情願加上各種耽擱最後不瞭瞭之，看書的時候嘗試過代入不過真的不怎麼閤適... 倒因為角色設定是前海陸所以把 GK 的兩人代入到還蠻符閤的。
