Not out a year yet. "Nothing short of brilliant.” -- The Wall Street Journal

"A visionary novel inspired by the life of film director G.W. Pabst, who fled to Hollywood to resist the Nazis only to return to his homeland to create propaganda films for the German Reich."

An artist's life, a pact with the devil, and the dangerous illusions of the silver screen.

Sounds awesome. I hope some here give it a look. Thanks so much for sharing!
