Slow Fade - Tapa blanda

""The return of "Slow Fade" is a fine thing. It's Rudy Wurlitzer's greatest work of fiction . . . and one of the best American books there is." --Alex Cox, director, " Repo Man "and" Sid & Nancy

""If you splice Rudy Wurlitzer's "Slow Fade" to his other four novels, they become a beautiful quintet, never losing their miraculous beat." --Robert Downey, director, " Hugo Pool "and" Putney Swope

"""Slow Fade" may be the most traditional of Wurlitzer's novels, and the time-honored pleasures of the novel are here in abundance: a twisting and turning story about fathers and sons, power and poverty, violence and fate. Some may read it as a 'roman a clef' about certain notorious Hollywood players, but that seems rather secondary to me. Wurlitzer has fashioned a rare and wonderful thing--a deeply spiritual novel, without one whiff of incense or candle wax." --Scott Spencer, author, " Endless Love "and" Waking the Dead

"""Slow Fade" comes out of the space between real life and the movies and closes it up for good. A great book: beautiful, funny, and dangerous." --Michael Herr, screenwriter, " Full Metal Jacket
