Description
Double Feature: A Novel by Owen King A poignant and ambitious novel about a young man coming to terms with his life after the failure of his first film. Sam Dolan struggles to reconcile his complicated relationships, including those with his difficult father, Booth, a B-movie actor, and his mother, Allie, whose love for him was overshadowed by her devotion to his father. As Sam navigates the aftermath of making his first film, he is surrounded by a cast of eccentric characters, each with their own story to tell. From his precocious half-sister to his Internet-famous roommate, everyone has a role to play in unraveling the tangled web of the Dolan family's history. Set against the backdrop of indie filmmaking and contemporary Brooklyn, Double Feature is a powerful exploration of ambition, relationships, and the human struggle to survive and move forward.
