Subversively funny and provocatively honest . . . Truly original. Author: Gary Shteyngart

Franco's novel lures you in with indelible images, provocative mind games, and characters laid bare, then successfully strands you in a frightening place. Author: Amy Hempel

In Actors Anonymous, Franco performs an auto-celebrity roast that is at once mordantly funny, maddening and provocative . . . a kind of intellectual companion piece to his role in This Is the End. Source: USA Today

Part aphorism, part instruction manual, part reflection, part short story and, seemingly, part memoir, the narrative is a pastiche of forms and moods. Franco (or his alter ego) presents his ideas through anecdotes and semi-plausible fictional incidents, with plenty of inside references to Hollywood actors. Source: Kirkus Reviews

From acclaimed Hollywood actor/director James Franco comes a brilliant new work of fiction.
