The Fabulist

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Fear and Loathing in... Paradise?The Fabulist is a wickedly funny tale of self loathing, self destruction, and ultimately self discovery as Frank Shaw, a failed novelist and dispirited blogger, gets an assignment to cover the Maui Classic Invitational, an annual pre-season college basketball tournament in Hawaii for an internet blog. But when Frank shucks the tournament to explore the island, pick golden caps with the locals, and hit on an attractive bartender, fantasy and reality soon blur into a wild hallucinogenic trip, thrusting him deep into his memory banks where he is forced to recall his past failures, relationships, and the decisions that lead him there. As Frank ruminates on the mistakes of his past he hurdles headlong into uncharted emotional territory on an ever-escalating adventure in a place he deems "Paradise." The Fabulist is a modern gonzo adventure of a middle aged man's obsession with finding himself at any cost. Inspired by the tales of Hunter S. Thompson, Chuck Palahniuk, Charles Bukowski, and other classic writers of transgressive fiction, this is one unforgettable ride you won't soon forget! Samuel W. Reed is an author, screenwriter, and film producer best known for his documentary work on CinemAbility: the Art of Inclusion, Birdies, and Into the Wilderness. He also edited the Amazon bestselling short story collection Miscreants, Murderers, & Thieves: a collection of short stories about devious behavior.
