Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Joanna urgently needs $10,000, and she’s willing to do anything to get it. Ernest Mayday, a successful British author living in Hollywood, struggles with writer’s block and a tumultuous relationship with his girlfriend, Randi, who is devoted to a questionable religious leader. When he responds to Joanna's personal ad, he sees an opportunity: he will match whatever money she earns from other offers, as long as she reports back to him. This arrangement spirals into a complex narrative involving blackmail, jury tampering, and high-stakes Hollywood deals, providing Ernest with the inspiration he craves. As he navigates this tangled web, he questions his role as a writer—whether he is merely an observer or if he is becoming part of a dangerous reality. Critics praise the novel for its sharp satire of Hollywood, religion, and the creative process, highlighting Lynn's cinematic writing style and comedic flair. The story remains relevant, offering a multilayered exploration of love, ambition, and the absurdities of modern life, all while delivering unexpected twists and a humorous critique of contemporary culture.
