Veteran writer Marc Sotkin brings his comic chops to chart the odyssey of fictional Barry Klein from down on his luck Hollywood dreamer to one of TV’s most successful, unhappy, producer-writers. With loads of unwitting insight into the biz, behind the scenes observations and insider wit, our wannabe hero Klein ironically finds his true mission as a storyteller and rediscovers his relationship with his wife. Through it all, author Marc Sotkin brings us into our comically confused hero’s heart. We are with Barry’s pain and his ultimate redemption as we celebrate his coming of age. Through Barry’s odyssey – self-absorbed artist to inspired mensch – we feel there is hope for us all.
