James Frey

Welcome to LA. City of contradictions. It is home to movie stars and down-and-outs. Palm-lined beaches and gridlock. Shopping sprees and gun sprees. Bright Shiny Morning takes a wild ride through the ultimate metropolis, where glittering excess rubs shoulders with seedy depravity. Freys trademark filmic snapshots zoom in on the parallel lives of diverse characters, bringing their egos and ideals, hopes and despairs, anxieties and absurdities vividly to life. Some suffer, like the otherworldly wino who tries to save a spoilt teenage runaway. Others gain, like the canny talent agent who turns sexual harassment to blackmailing advantage. Some are loaded, or grounded, and have luck on their side. Others, like the countless actresses-turned-hookers, or schoolboys-turned-gangsters, are doomed.

A kiss, a touch. A smile and a beating heart. Love and sex and dreams, art and drugs and the madness of youth. Betrayal and heartbreak, regret and pain, the melancholy of age. Katerina, James Frey's explosive new novel, is a sweeping love story alternating between 1992 Paris and Los Angeles in 2017.At its centre are a young writer and a young model on the verge of fame, both reckless, impulsive, and deeply in love. Twenty-five years later, the writer is rich, famous and numb, and he wants to drive his car into a tree, when he receives an anonymous message that draws him back to the life, and possibly the love, he abandoned years prior. Written in the same percussive, propulsive, dazzling, breathtaking style as A Million Little Pieces, Katerina echoes and complements that most controversial of memoirs, and plays with the same issues of fiction and reality that created, nearly destroyed, and then recreated James Frey in the global imagination.

Complemento de la serie éxito de ventas Endgame, del New York Times bestseller. The Complete Zero Line Chronicles es una colección de novelas precuela, un grupo clandestino de teóricos de la conspiracion decididos a poner fin a la Final de partida - y salvar el mundo.

N''avoir aucun souvenir des deux semaines qui viennent de s''écouler. Être sans argent, sans papiers, sans travail, alcoolique depuis dix ans et accro au crack depuis trois. N''avoir que vingt-trois

Imagina que te despiertas en un avión. No tienes ni idea de dónde has estado ni de adónde vas. No recuerdas nada de las dos últimas semanas. Imagina que te faltan cuatro dientes, que tienes la nariz rota y una herida en la mejilla. Imagina que vas sin cartera, sin dinero, y no tienes trabajo. Imagina que te está buscando la policía. Imagina que eres alcohólico desde hace diez años y adicto al crack desde hace tres. ¿Qué harías?A los veintitrés años, James Frey ingresó en un centro de desintoxicación. Destruido física y mentalmente de forma casi irremediable, debía enfrentarse a una difícil decisión: aceptar que no llegaría a cumplir los veinticuatro, o cambiar drásticamente el curso de su vida. Rodeado de pacientes en la misma situación –entre los que había un juez, un pandillero, un boxeador que había sido campeón mundial y una frágil ex prostituta–, Frey luchó contra el dogma de «Cómo recuperarse» para conseguir encontrar su propio camino, y decidir qué futuro, si le esperaba alguno, era el que quería alcanzar. Aclamado por la crítica como todo un fenómeno literario y best seller desde los primeros días de su publicación, En mil pedazos es el testimonio inusualmente sincero de un hombre cuyo furioso impulso de autodestrucción sólo es comparable a su inagotabledeseo de sobrevivir.

In this sequel to A MILLION LITTLE PIECES, in which he chronicled his addictions, James Frey writes about a friend he met in rehab, a former gangster named Leonard. An exploration of trust and friendship and what they can mean, especially to someone in crisis, MY FRIEND LEONARD is also a tender and compelling portrait of an extraordinary person.

A 2005 selection for Oprah''s Book Club, this addiction memoir opens with the author''s awakening on an airplane with a broken nose, a hole in his cheek, and four missing teeth--and no knowledge of how he received those injuries or, indeed, of how he got on the plane or where he''s going. James Frey writes candidly about his monumental problems with drugs and alcohol, his terrifying experiences, and his relationships with the fellow-addicts he encountered over six weeks of detox at a Minnesota clinic. One of his themes is a refusal to believe in the "higher power" that so many recovery programs advocate.

"The most lacerating tale of drug addiction since William S. Burroughs'' Junky." --"The Boston Globe" "Again and again, the book delivers recollections that leave the reader winded and unsteady. James Frey''s staggering recovery memoir could well be seen as the final word on the topic."--"San Francisco Chronicle" "A brutal, beautifully written memoir."--"The Denver Post" "Gripping . . . A great story . . . You can''t help but cheer his victory." --"Los Angeles Times Book Review"
