"New York Times" bestselling author, comedian, and actor Patton
Oswalt shares his entertaining memoir about coming of age as a
performer and writer in the late '90s while obsessively watching
classic films at the legendary New Beverly Cinema in Los Angeles.
Between 1995 and 1999, Patton Oswalt lived with an unshakeable
addiction. It wasn't drugs, alcohol, or sex. It was film. After
moving to L.A., Oswalt became a huge film buff, absorbing classics
and new releases at least three nights a week at the New Beverly
Cinema. Silver screen celluloid became Patton's life schoolbook,
informing his notions of acting, writing, comedy, and
relationships. Set in the nascent days of the alternative comedy
scene, Oswalt's memoir chronicles his journey from fledgling
stand-up comedian to self-assured sitcom actor, with the colorful
New Beverly collective supporting him all along the way.
Ideally timed for awards season, when everyone's mind is on
Hollywood, "Silver Screen Fiend "follows up on the terrific
reception of Oswalt's "New York Times "bestselling debut, "Zombie
Spaceship Wasteland." Already a beloved fixture on the comedy
stage, on television, and in film--not to mention his 1.1 million
Twitter followers--Oswalt announces, with this second book, that
he's also here to stay on the page.
