Willy Muller is an embittered writer of celebrity bios and an
equal-opportunity misanthropist. At the age of fifty, he has
survived imprisonment for murdering his wife, years of venomous
hate mail from the British public and, most recently, the suicide
of his daughter Sadie. Willy needs a rest, but he's not going to
get it. While recuperating from a heart attack in a Mexican resort
with his magnificently silly girlfriend Penny and his
vodka-drenched friend Harry, Willy finds himself drawn into a
troubling confrontation with his past. He should be working on the
screen adaptation of his infamous hack memoir, To Have and to Hold,
but instead he becomes engrossed in Sadie's tragic diaries.
Reluctantly, he considers his chaotic family history and the notion
that "only when you die do you run out of chances to be good."
Set in Mexico, Los Angeles and London, Everything You Know is a
story of love and loathing, sex and death, and filial relations
gone horribly awry. Acidly funny and deeply affecting, it marks the
debut of a brilliant and immensely stylish young writer.
