Opis: Me and Orson Welles - Robert Kaplow, R Kaplow

SPECIAL TIE-IN EDITION INCLUDING EXCLUSIVE IMAGES FROM THE FILM. Richard is a 17-year-old kid from New Jersey with the gift of the gab and an eye for the ladies. He's bored with school and dreams of making it big in the dazzling world of 1930s Manhattan. This is the story of one week in Richard's life, when he miraculously gets a part in a history-making production of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar at the Mercury theatre, New York. It's the week falls in love, and falls out of love again; it's the week he changes his middle name - twice. It's also the week he meets the colossally talented, fearsomely charming, soon-to-be-superstar Orson Welles. After this week, Richard's life will never be the same again. "Sleekly groomed, diverting, unpretentious...Orson Welles bestrides this narrative like a colossus...you feel the horror of a gifted artist metastasizing into that most twisted and unnatural of beings: a Star" Washington Post "One of the best depictions of male adolescent yearning ever to hit the page" Kirkus Reviews "Inventive... In the span of 269 breezy pages, [Richard] falls in love, has his heart broken, sees his showbiz dreams crushed, and - beautifully, almost imperceptibly - becomes a man" Entertainment Weekly "A charming novel... should be rationed and savoured over many days" Independent "Bright, enthusiastic...entertaining" Publishers Weekly
