Electroboy: A Memoir of Mania - Tapa blanda

Andy Behrman was Superman. He slept three hours a day. He learned new languages in a week. He was a dealer, a hustler, an art forger who made millions. He flew from Geneva to Anguilla then back again to balance out the hot and cold. He gave strangers spontaneous gifts of thousands of dollars from the cash he kept in his refrigerator. Then he was arrested for art forgery, went to prison and soon after that, found out he was mad. Following intensive bouts of electric shock therapy, he was cured. No longer Superman, but Electroboy. This is his story. It's all true.

Andy Behrman has published a number of articles in The New York Times. This is his first book. He lives in New York.
