[nice copy, with just a slight bump to the bottom rear corner; faint wear to jacket at a couple of corners]. "...a moral fable set in a slyly portrayed amoral world, peopled with the archetypes beloved in Hollywood. This wicket romp through the machinations of ambition is set in a skewed Los Angeles circa 1963. Judd Haber, the agent's agent, a far-from-perfect Everyman, is estranged from his past (his name used to be Jacob Haber), from his wife and his family. His adopted son is a porn star, his daughter is seeing a man he's never met, and his wife is drifting into a tepid affair with her university extension professor." The author was a longtime story editor at MGM and other studios, and served at various times as assistant to Dore Schary and Howard Hughes.
