Double Feature
Glenn P. Wolfe
"... a kind of brilliance that sets it apart ... the strategies, such as movie references organized in footnotes and an index, lend the book a strange, even Nabokovian, air that is unique ..."
Harcourt Brace Jovanovich
In Double Feature, sex, scandal, and mystery all come together in the biographical tale of the life of Leland Granger, a Hollywood film director. When Leland is assumed to have died in a fire, it may have been an accident or the work of a murderous arsonist. All that's found in the ashes of his home in Chappaqua is Granger's wedding band, and there are whispers that someone else may have died in the blaze. Everyone in Leland's life has their own story to tell, and they are all conflicting. His neurotic twenty-year-old daughter, Debby, tells the world that her father is the first true American auteur. The narrator, who has known Granger since his college days as Leon Grossman, gives a coolly sarcastic evaluation of the man who gained posthumous fame with the success of his only feature film, which was shot on the island of Mallorca. Then, of course, there is Granger's wife, his lover, colleagues, and a handful of friends. All of them have something to say about the director and his film as they share their revelations and reminiscences in this riveting novel.
