Steve Erickson

    Steve Erickson è un autore celebrato le cui opere approfondiscono le complessità dell'identità americana e dei cambiamenti sociali. La sua scrittura, caratterizzata da una prosa ricca e spesso surreale, esplora gli angoli più oscuri della psiche umana e la fluidità della realtà. L'approccio letterario di Erickson è visivo e atmosferico, attirando i lettori nelle sue narrazioni come quadri cinematografici. I suoi romanzi giocano con linee temporali frammentate e personaggi ambigui, spingendo alla riflessione sulla natura della memoria e della storia.

      Zeroville begins in 1969 on Hollywood Boulevard, when a Greyhound bus drops off a film-obsessed ex-seminarian with images of Elizabeth Taylor and Montgomery Clift tattooed on his head. Vikar Jerome steps into the vortex of a cultural transformation: rock ’n’ roll, sex, drugs, and — far more important to him — the decline of the movie studios and the rise of the independent director. Jerome will become a film editor of astonishing vision. Then through encounters with former starlets, burglars, political guerillas, punk musicians, and veteran filmmakers, he discovers the astonishing secret that lies in every movie ever made.

      In a world of cataclysm and unraveled time, a young woman's face, a misbegotten childhood in a Parisian brothel, and the fragment of a lost movie masterpiece are the only clues in a man's search for his past. Steve Erickson's Days Between Stations is the stunning, now classic dream-spec of our precarious age - by turns beautiful and obsessed, haunted and hallucinated, in which lives erotically collide, the past ambushes the future, and forbidden secrets intercut with each other like the frames of a film.
