Angebote / Angebote:

Max McMillan, a renowned and worshiped author, takes the reader on a journey through his playboy, luxurious, and millions-of-Instagram-follower life. Annoyed by his stardom, and seemingly out for self-destruction, Max's story is one of constant disaster. However, when he discovers that his best friend, Jack, a poor and unpublished writer, is losing his wife to cancer, he decides to risk it all to help them in this hilarious and satirical comedy. For fans of Carl Hiaasen, Charles Bukowski, Tucker Max, and The Catcher in the Rye."Laced with sardonic wit and a devil-may-care style, The Hack [is] unclassifiable, but undeniably interesting. Walking around in the mind of a neurotic writer can be exhausting, particularly one as vulgar and base in its instincts, but Mikheyev weaves fine wisdom from coarse thread, touching on deep grief, personal disappointment, lack of fulfillment, and the desire to leave a legacy. [T]here is [an] authentic narrative charm in the uncouth self-reflection. Boasting the egocentrism of Bukowski and the rambling madness of Kerouac, there are flashes of brilliance throughout this unique novel"-SPR
