Etat : Muy bueno. : En el otoño del año electoral 2000, multitud de personas del negocio cinematográfico se enfocan en un objetivo: conectarse a una saga televisiva elusiva pero potencialmente enorme. Esta saga comienza con los hunos arrasando Mongolia y termina con un mormón en el desierto de Las Vegas, una miniserie multigeneracional sobre adivinos, aquellos trabajadores milagrosos que llevan agua a una humanidad perpetuamente sedienta. Entre los aspirantes se encuentran Vanessa Meandro, la temperamental jefa de una compañía de cine independiente, su personal variado, un taxista sij, un mensajero bipolar en bicicleta, las chicas Vanderbilt, un escritor de thrillers que organiza fiestas de Botox y un director ejecutivo de programación de la cadena cuya hija es la asistente de Vanessa. 'The Diviners' es una historia sobre la ambición sin sentido, una mirada detallada a los mundos interconectados del dinero, la política, la adicción, el sexo, el trabajo y la familia en la América moderna, y una obra maestra de la comedia.

Paperback. [Author], [Publisher]. NB: This is a secondhand book in very good condition. See our FAQs for more information. Please note that the jacket image is indicative only. A description of our secondhand books is not always available. Please contact us if you have a question about this title. Author: Rick Moody Format: Paperback Number of Pages: 502 It is the autumn of election year 2000, and scores of film-business strivers are focused on one goal - getting themselves connected to an elusive but potentially huge television saga, one that opens with Huns sweeping through Mongolia and closes with a Mormon in the Las Vegas desert; a sure-to-please-everyone, multi-generational TV mini-series about diviners, those miracle workers who bring water to perpetually thirsty (and hungry and love-starved) humankind. Among the wannabees: Vanessa Meandro, hot-tempered head of an indie film company; her harried and varied staff; a Sikh cab driver; a bi-polar bicycle messenger; the Vanderbilt girls; a thriller writer who gives Botox parties; a CEO of network programming whose daughter is Vanessa's doughnut gofer:and a supreme court justice who wants to write the script. The Diviners is a cautionary tale about pointless ambition; a richly detailed look at the interlocking worlds of money, politics, addiction, sex, work, and family in modern America; and a masterpiece of comedy that will bring Rick Moody to a still higher level of appreciation.
