Return of the Player - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

<div>Published to great acclaim and adapted into a celebrated movie by Robert Altman, <i>The Player</i> defined the new Hollywood and became a cult classic. In <i>The Return of the Player</i>, film executive Griffin Mill, who got away with murder, is out to make a killing. Determined to escape a Hollywood and a world he believes are dying, Griffin needs a safe haven, a private island somewhere in the South Pacific with an airstrip and high ground. But he&#8217;s broke, down to his last $6 million. He has one last desperate plan, to quit the studio and convince Phil Ginsberg, an almost billionaire who aspires to &#147;really savage wealth,&#8221; to become his partner. Meanwhile, his personal life is falling apart. He is impotent and allergic to Viagra. His second marriage is broken, perhaps permanently, and he&#8217;s beginning to think he shouldn&#8217;t have divorced his first wife. And if that&#8217;s not enough, Griffin even has to commit another murder when his plan nearly collapses. With <i>The Return of the Player</i>, his fourth novel, Tolkin again delivers a brilliant, incisive portrait of power, wealth, family, and contemporary society gone out of control.</div>
