A thoughtful, sensitively written tale about a man and his adolescent daughter after the death of the girl's mother. . . . This quietly uplifting book is for parents and children of all ages. -Advocate, Stamford, CTThis book is not only charming, but it contains some great wisdom. . . . It's a terrific book . . . a great gift for you, for your family. . . -Terry Meeuwsen, co-host of The 700 ClubEric Burns is a writer fighting for family values in a razzle-dazzle celebrity-laced culture. And the characters he creates here are geniune in description, dialogue, and emotions. -CompassA powerful indictment of a culture in celebrity's thrall . . . In this little work of fiction, he's told the shallow story of our time, pretending it's just a heart-warming tale about a different kind of princess and her dad. -NewsdayThis hard-cover gift book has the power to mist up the eyes of even the sternest reader. It will be especially potent for fathers and their daughters, if the latter are in their teens or older. Because of its message, it's one heck of an emotional gift for a girl or woman to give her dad if she admires him for the person he is rather than for the things he's accumulated. -Journal InquirerDo not expect to read [this book] and still have a dry eye. [It] will be every parent and child's favorite. -Barnes & Noble EventsFinally, a book for young readers that questions the meaning and importance of fame, a book that tries to put a few human priorities back where they belong. -Ellis Henican comments on Bloomberg Radio

The Autograph Man
Author: Zadie Smith
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 1400034434
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of Swing Time and one of the most revered writers of her generation comes an "intelligent ... exquisitely clever [novel] about fame, mortality, and the triumph of image over reality” (The Boston Globe). Alex-Li Tandem sells autographs. His business is to hunt for names on paper, collect them, sell them, and occasionally fake them—all to give the people what they want: a little piece of Fame. But what does Alex want? Only the return of his father, the end of religion, something for his headache, three different girls, infinite grace, and the rare autograph of forties movie actress Kitty Alexander. With fries. The Autograph Man is a deeply funny existential tour around the hollow trappings of modernity: celebrity, cinema, and the ugly triumph of symbol over experience. It offers further proof that Zadie Smith is one of the most staggeringly talented writers of her generation.
