by Tom Hanks (Author)

Del actor ganador del Premio de la Academia y autor del best seller Tipos singulares, llega una nueva novela sobre la realización de una película de acción de superhéroes multimillonaria repleta de estrellas... y de los humildes cómics que lo inspiraron.

Una novela divertida, conmovedora y maravillosamente estimulante, que captura al mismo tiempo los cambios en Estados Unidos y la cultura norteamericana desde la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

La primera parte de esta historia tiene lugar en 1947. Un soldado con problemas que regresa de la guerra se encuentra con su talentoso sobrino de cinco años, le deja una impresión indeleble y luego desaparece durante veintitrés años.

Corte a 1970: el sobrino, que ahora dibuja cómics clandestinos en Oakland, California, se reencuentra con su tío y, recordando el cómic que vio cuando tenía cinco años, dibuja una nueva versión con su tío como un héroe de la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

Corte al presente: un director de éxito comercial descubre el cómic de 1970 y decide convertirlo en una película de superhéroes contemporánea. Reparto: conocemos a la estrella masculina y extremadamente difícil de la película, su maravillosa protagonista, el excéntrico escritor/director, el productor, el asistente de producción del recadero y todos aquellos que están en ambos lados de la cámara.

Material extra: Intercalados a lo largo del realto hay tres cómics que aparecen en la historia, todos creados por el propio Tom Hanks, incluido el cómic que se convierte en el vínculo oficial con la "gran obra maestra cinematográfica" de esta novela.

Una historia tremendamente ambiciosa sobre la colosal realización de una película de acción de superhéroes, repleta de estrellas y multimillonaria, y sobre el humilde cómic que lo inspiró todo.

Abarcando 80 años de una América cambiante y culminando con la apertura de la película, nos encontramos con un colorido elenco de personajes que incluye un soldad con problemas que regresa de la guerra, un joven con un don artístico, un director inspirado y excéntrico, una pomposa estrella de cine en ascenso, una asistente de producción incansable e innumerables miembros del equipo de filmación que juntos crean la magia de Hollywood.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From the legendary actor and best-selling author: a novel about the making of a star-studded, multimillion-dollar superhero action film...and the humble comic books that inspired it. Funny, touching, and wonderfully thought-provoking, while also capturing the changes in America and American culture since World War II.

"Wild, ambitious and exceptionally enjoyable." --Matt Haig, best-selling author The Midnight Library, The Humans and Reasons to Stay Alive

Part One of this story takes place in 1947. A troubled soldier, returning from the war, meets his talented five-year-old nephew, leaves an indelible impression, and then disappears for twenty-three years.

Cut to 1970: The nephew, now drawing underground comic books in Oakland, California, reconnects with his uncle and, remembering the comic book he saw when he was five, draws a new version with his uncle as a World War II fighting hero.

Cut to the present day: A commercially successful director discovers the 1970 comic book and decides to turn it into a contemporary superhero movie.

Cue the cast: We meet the film's extremely difficult male star, his wonderful leading lady, the eccentric writer/director, the producer, the gofer production assistant, and everyone else on both sides of the camera.

Bonus material: Interspersed throughout are three comic books that are featured in the story--all created by Tom Hanks himself--including the comic book that becomes the official tie-in to this novel's "major motion picture masterpiece."
