Sublime playwright Jonathan Leaf is a longtime theatre friend of Bret and Cassandra Csencsitz who jumped genres this year, publishing his first novel to great acclaim. On May 6, 2023 we held a book event with the author in conversation with Bret Csencsitz.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
A smart and sexy modern noir set in the steamy underbelly of 21st century Hollywood.
Billy Rosenberg is a workmanlike screenwriter who finds his fate intertwined with would-be starlet Vincenza Morgan in this fiendish and sharp tale of a city where Image always trumps Reality.
Filled with plot twists, wicked humor, and vivid commentary on celebrity culture, author Jonathan Leaf has skillfully crafted a compelling romp which manages to weave murder, drugs, sex cults, modern relationships, and naked ambition together into a tale that lays bare the real Los Angeles—a city where even the angels have an angle.
