Showing results for "Final Draft" in Literature & Fiction

Throughout his 25-year journalistic career, David Carr was noted for his sharp and fearless observations, his uncanny sense of fairness and justice, and his remarkable compassion and wit. His writing was informed both by his own hardships as an addict, and his intense love of the journalist's craft. His range - from media politics to national politics, from rock-n-roll celebrities to the unknown civil servants who make our daily lives function - was broad and often timeless.

The author’s novel—embedded into Final Draft—is the story of a hardboiled crime reporter who figures out a plot to seduce and marry a dying heiress in order to gain her fortune. His plan, however, is beset with challenges and he finds himself in an ever darker, ever deepening maze of intrigue...something the author suddenly seems unable to escape himself as the writer’s fiction merges with his own life.

Great conversations with authors from Australia and around the world.
