Editor's Note:
Nella terminologia cinematografica, un progetto si definisce «in turnaround» quando viene abbandonato dalla casa di produzione che per prima ha acquisito i diritti della sceneggiatura, e proposto ad altre compagnie. E questo è quello che succede alla sceneggiatura intorno alla quale ruotano i tre protagonisti di questo «hard boiled» hollywoodiano, ambientato nella Los Angeles decadente degli anni Settanta: Jerry Rexford, scrittore frustrato e aspirante sceneggiatore in gravi difficoltà economiche; Richard Heidelberg, giovane regista sulla cresta dell'onda; e Alexander Hellstrom, potentissimo dirigente di una grande casa di produzione. Tra cocaina, alcol, sesso, e notti che sembrano non finire mai, i tre verrano travolti dai rispettivi egoismi e coinvolti in una estenuante e per certi versi tragica vicenda cinematografica che vedrà le loro vite intrecciarsi, e cambiare per sempre. Quella che invece sembra non cambiare mai, e che è la vera protagonista del romanzo, è Hollywood, la città che Don Carpenter ha saputo raccontare come nessun altro. Hollywood con i suoi viali infiniti e i suoi tramonti struggenti, con le sue atmosfere molli e tentatrici, le star, gli studios, i locali, e i sogni: i sogni realizzati e, soprattutto, quelli infranti. La sceneggiatura (titolo originale Turnaround, 1981) è uno dei tre romanzi che Don Carpenter ha dedicato al mondo di Hollywood, insieme a A Couple of Comedians e The True Life Story of Jody McKeegan.

"A very strong entry. The protagonist was compelling, though some subplots felt slightly overshadowed. Quite impressive overall."
