Description

Sammy Glick's meteoric rise to success is a story of unapologetic ambition and ruthless determination. Budd Schulberg masterfully chronicles this complex figure, revealing both the hilarious and deeply compassionate aspects of his character. As a virtuoso study in character, Sammy Glick remains an iconic figure in Hollywood, embodying the darker side of the American dream. With its blend of humor and pathos, this novel offers a compelling exploration of one man's relentless pursuit of success at any cost. Written by Budd Schulberg, author of the acclaimed screenplay On the Waterfront, What Makes Sammy Run? is a gripping portrayal of the Hollywood sleaze heap, where the lines between right and wrong are constantly blurred.
