John Kenney Knihy

John Kenney pracoval sedemnásť rokov ako copywriter v New Yorku. Od roku 1999 písal pre časopis The New Yorker. Román Pravda v reklame je jeho literárny debut. Fin Doland je osamelý a v živote to nikam nedotiahol. Nanešťastie si to vôbec neuvedomuje. Má takmer štyridsať a pracuje v reklamnej agentúre na Madison Avenue. No kým jeho kolegovia pripravujú štýlové kampane pre Apple alebo Nike, Fin má navrhnúť reklamu na plienky – v rekordne krátkom čase, niekoľko dní pred Vianocami. No keď sa dozvie, že jeho otec je ťažko chorý, rozhodne sa, že je načase všetko zmeniť: nájde lásku a zamyslí sa nad skutočným významom plienok vo svojom živote.

This book tells us about one of the greatest story-tellers the world has known. Many of the events in his life, and the characters whom he knew, are described in his books: this is the story of the man who wrote them.
