The Book of the Film of the Story of My Life by William Brandt

'Once Frederick Case passionately believed he could change the world. Sometime later, he decided to put up with it. Today, on his forty-second birthday, this New Zealander realizes he can't do either, and now it's the world's turn. And it isn't being kind.' 'Frederick is a struggling film producer who is losing his hair and tempted to accept money from his rich parents. He reads tons of lousy scripts and bemoans the loss of his wife, Sophie, to her hunky costar - the one who, with Sophie, made history with the first oral sex scene ever performed in a major motion picture. Now fortune strikes Frederick with an invitation to an exclusive island. With a gorgeous date - a vulnerable young hooker named Melissa - and Sophie and her lover among the guests (surprise!), he'll finally learn the answers to life's burning questions: Are people really who we think they are? Is real love as predictable as the movies? And can we really go home again?'--BOOK JACKET. This 2002 Victoria University Press Paperback is in good condition.
