Description & Specifications

‘Poignant and extremely funny. This is comic writing at its best’ THE TIMES

Welcome to the sad, mad world of Saul Karoo - an alcoholic who can't get drunk, a loving father who can't bear to be alone with his son, a fixer of film scripts who admits that he ruins every one of them. Calamity and comedy accompany Karoo on his odyssey through sex, death and show-business as he seeks to save both a master director's greatest film and his own broken life at the same time.

‘Utterly wonderful... confronts the most unbearable sadness with a comic exhilaration that makes you almost pleased that life is tragic’ HOWARD JACOBSON

‘Mordantly funny, unexpectedly moving and brutally honest’ RICHARD E GRANT
