Marshall Stone, international superstar and charismatic member of Hollywood`s elite. Abundantly blessed with charm, genius and wealth, the one gift he most desires “ everlasting youth “ seems within his grasp when an eminent writer begins the star`s biography. But painful memories and suppressed scandals threaten to expose the fiction of his life.
Dazzled by flattery and numbed by threats, the biographer is caught up in the big-daddy world where books are properties, films are investments, ratings are rigged, and stars and directors are bought and sold like slaves at an auction.
The rituals, the wheeler-dealing politics, and back-stabbing tactics of the richest industry in the world have never been more effectively portrayed. And at the heart of this glittering machine, a brilliant star who will do almost anything to remain untarnished.
This new reissue includes a foreword from the cover designer, Oscarwinning filmmaker Arnold Schwartzman, and a brand new introduction by Len Deighton, which offers a fascinating insight into the writing of the story ISBN: 9780007395774
