Sinossi

Los Angeles, 1993. Fawn de Jager is a former child performer struggling to make a name for herself in the cut-throat world of pop music.
 
Julian T. Rockefeller is her manager, a one-time music business high-flyer and a full-time disciple of the rock and roll lifestyle, trying to rebuild his reputation and stay relevant in a rapidly changing industry.
 
Steven and Rahul kidnap people for a living.
 
On the brink of bankruptcy and facing imminent obsolescence, Julian takes one last roll of the dice in his bid to launch Fawn's career. It could be the worst idea he's ever come up with – or it could be the best.
 
When you're that desperate, it can be hard to tell the difference.
Disponibile da: 22/03/2022.

    This isn't a self-help book. It's a mental junk drawer — full of quotes, chaos, forklift wisdom, and a guy just trying to make sense of the noise. 
    No chapters. No index. No roadmap. You'll find meaning, then lose it again. And maybe that's the point. 
    It's part philosophy, part humor, part existential napkin scribble. 
    If you've ever argued with God in a break room or felt like socks next to the couch might symbolize existential dread... you're in the right place.

    A satirical SF caper of evolution, gangsters, Darwin’s brain, and the Golden Age of Hollywood from the Nebula and World Fantasy Award–winning author. When Sonya Orlova, a successful 1930s horror-film actress, crosses paths with a gorilla whose brain has been swapped for the frozen cerebrum of the late Charles Darwin, the two are inspired to write and produce evolution-themed monster movies—with Sonya in her greatest role, Korgora the Ape Woman!  As this offbeat and controversial Hollywood series finds a devoted cult audience, Sonia’s relationship with her strange simian collaborator acquires an intensity neither could have imagined. Then disaster strikes, as zealous opponents to Darwin’s ideas contrive to put the Ape Woman out of business.  By turns satiric and romantic, madcap, and thoughtful, Behold the Ape is at once an outré love story, a tribute to classic monster movies, and a science-fictional celebration of that beleaguered institution we call public education.
