Description:
Some people have poker; others had bridge. Centered around the Spring Nationals of the American Contract Bridge League, the core of human nature is revealed through a remarkable cast of characters.
Tickets to the Devil by Richard Powell takes place in Miami Beach in 1968, the same year the book was published. A national bridge tournament is being held at a luxury hotel and scores of players, kibitzers and bridge analysts have gathered to partake in the festivities.
There are a number of subplots, some intertwined, involving a disparate collection of individuals all of whom share an unbridled enthusiasm for bridge. They come from far and wide, ready to play and to socialize. Most of them are troubled in one way or another, leading to the various storylines.
Tickets to the Devil combines tragedy and comedy with varying degrees of success.
