About the book

A man writes a screenplay on the life of Herman Melville. Not a single producer is interested until someone gives him the phone number of the great American filmmaker Michael Cimino, legendary director of The Deer Hunter. A meeting is arranged in New York, and Cimino reads the manuscript. What follows is a series of crazy adventures through Ellis Island, the Musee de la Chasse in Paris, a lake in Italy. This improbable, insightful tale bridges the divide between cinema and literature in unexpected ways that are at once gratifying and profound.
