Dan Fante

In New York, Bruno Dante's life is a train wreck. A call comes from L.A.: his screenwriter father is in a coma and not expected to live. The next three weeks on the streets of Los Angeles will alter Bruno Dante forever. In this novelistic homage to his father (Fante is the son of famed California novelist John Fante), Dan Fante expresses his hero's and his own bewilderment with a rawness, crudeness and shock, which never stifles the tenderness and compassion he has for his characters. Originally published to acclaim in France, this is the first US edition of Fante's debut novel.
