Présentation Brown de Polster, James Format Broché
- Livre Littérature Générale
Résumé : Former Boston sportswriter McGee Brown is traveling cross-country with his fianc?e when they call it quits somewhere around Nevada. With no job and no girl, Brown pushes on to California, where a fruitless job hunt lands him on his old buddy Fillmore's doorstep. Fillmore is an accomplished clinical psychologist (and part-time bartender) whose own sanity is questionable at best. So it is only fitting when Fillmore suggests the solution to Brown's financial woes is for him to become a psychologist as well--albeit, not a licensed one. (This is California, man. It doesn't matter.) Dr. Brown agrees. His first patient is a beautiful but unhappy woman who suspects her wealthy financier husband is plotting to kill her. Days later, she's found dead in a gorilla cage, her daughter goes missing, and Brown is hired to find her. The sportswriter-turned psychologist turns private detective. With the sardonic, oft-inebriated Fillmore at his side, Brown delves headfirst into what the San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle praised as a surreal, picaresque romp through the alienating landscape of contemporary culture.
Biographie: James Polster is a movie producer, novelist, and journalist who earned graduate degrees from Harvard University and Columbia University. A National Fellow of the Explorers Club, he has traveled the world profiling international luminaries such as Indira Gandhi and Donald Trump and covering such major athletic events as the Duran/Leonard Superfight and the World Championships of Elephant Polo. His award-winning first book, A Guest in the Jungle, helped focus a spotlight on the disappearing Amazon rainforest, and his second book, Brown, was named by Publishers Weekly as a Best Book of the Year. For his third book, The Graduate Student, Polster drew on his experiences working at Columbia Pictures and NBC.
