Summary
"Seamlessly blends fictional characters and situations with the lives of real people: obsessive orchid hunter John Laroche, New Yorker journalist Susan Orlean, Hollywood screenwriter Charlie Kaufman, and his twin brother Donald. As Charlie struggles to adapt Orlean's best-selling book, The orchid thief, he writes himself into his own movie"--Container
