Bruno Dante

Deze serie duikt in de rauwe realiteit van het leven van een kunstenaar, worstelend met persoonlijke demonen en een complex familie-erfgoed. Het volgt de turbulente reis van de protagonist door verslaving, woede en de zoektocht naar betekenis in een gebrekkige wereld. De verhalen verkennen de desillusie met de Amerikaanse Droom en bieden een rauw, maar vaak duister humoristisch perspectief. Verwacht een krachtige mix van woede, humor en diepe emotionele diepgang.

    Fiction. The book follows the exploits of Bruno Dante. In New York his life is a train wreck and is turned into an upheaval when he gets the call from Los Angeles that his screenwriter father is in a coma and not expected to live. The next three weeks on the streets of L.A will change Bruno Dante's life forever. The book expresses the bewilderment of its hero and its author with rawness, crudeness, and shock, and also serves as a very beautiful and touching homage to Fante's famous father John Fante.
