Britney and Justin are done. Low-rise jeans tyrannise the pants-wearing public. And Hector Singh, a 27-year-old eccentric, moderately talented yet extremely confident aspiring TV writer, is hell bent on 'making it' in LA. He's Puerto Rican and Indian but also post-race (or so he thinks) and he refuses to be intimidated by the Whites Only landscape of show business.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBut when his mother dies suddenly, Hector's grief turns into depression, triggering dark thoughts and a binge-eating disorder. He lands a potentially career-launching job as a writers' assistant on a TV drama, but antidepressants make things much worse.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWith a series of implosions that threaten to sink his work and relationships, Hector unravels. Spectacularly.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCan he navigate Hollywood racism, diet-culture oppression and overwhelming grief to survive this emotional crisis? Does he pull himself together in time to sell his TV show in a meeting with big producers? Will he catch an extremely fit Tom Cruise and give him a script?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eSeems unlikely.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eA hilarious, satirical, madcap and moving roller-coaster ride through the world of Hollywood as seen through one person's descent into despair.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45331610239134,"sku":"UBD-9781761046988","price":32.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781761046988.jpg?v=1744772378","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781761046988","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
