The Disenchanted, Paperback / softback Book

The Disenchanted Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

A portrait of an age of both dazzling spiritand bitter disillusionment, based on the last drunkendays of F.

Scott Fitzgerald. The 1920s: a golden age, and Manley Halliday is a golden figure.

Lauded by the critics, this great writer of the decade has everything - beauty, brilliance, wealth, and a strikingly lovely wife.

But years later, in the very different atmosphere of the thirties, Halliday is a shadow of his former self, cast upon the inhospitable shores of Hollywood. When Shep, a young and ambitious Hollywood screenwriter, is partnered up with Halliday, he is awestruck to find himself working alongside a literary hero.

Enlisted by movie mogul Victor Milgrim to co-write college musical Love on Ice, the pair embark on a journey to New York.

But Shep may find that his vision of the great Manley Halliday fails to match up with the man himself . . .
