A successful writer becomes jealous when his father a writer himself who has suffered a twenty-year block, is approached by a slick filmmaker who hopes to make a movie based on his early tragic work. Joel Zwilling is emerging as a literary wunderkind. But when Joel's wife and daughter are killed in a car accident, he is left with a young son, and a resulting writer's block as unmoving as a pyramid. Over the next two decades, Joel's career will be all but eclipsed by that of his son, Nate. Thus Nate is astounded--and jealous--when his father is approached by a slick director who wants to capture his tragic early work on film. As the director and his sensual assistant bedevil father and son, the retributions rain down upon all sides. This richly ironic comedy is a nimble juggle of shifting realities--named by the Los Angeles Times one of the Best Books of the year when it was originally published.
