      About the Book

      "The" "Devil Wears Prada" of the book publishing world, this biting satire is a trenchant portrait of the contemporary obsession with success, celebrity, and fame

      Jim Talbot, a writer with a dozen unpublished novels under his belt, has been roundly rejected by virtually every agent and publisher in the land, and is willing to go to extreme lengths to make his dream of literary stardom come true. Charles Randall, the eccentric founder and managing director of Tetragon Press, a small independent publisher that has managed to survive for 30 years in a fierce publishing environment dominated by corporate juggernauts, is about to be brutally sacked by a newly appointed business consultant. In the cut-throat world of modern publishing, Charles and Jim's paths towards literary salvation are fraught with the most unpredictable dangers. A novel of intrigue, deceit, and sheer desperation, this""is a caustic portrait of contemporary culture and of the literary world's obsession with fame, success, and becoming the next J. K. Rowling.
