Description

Brilliantly plotted, Gotham Tragic is a pitch-perfect send-up of money and celebrity culture. It's not a black comedy so much as a red, white, and blue one, and the next big step forward for a writer whose gifts are as impressive as the Manhattan skyline.

Reviews

""Kyle Clayton, Kurt Wenzel's anti-hero in Lit Life "and GOTHAM TRAGIC, "is forever having difficulty following up on the promise of his first novel. Good to see the real-life author hasn't suffered likewise."
"[Wenzel's] startlingly funny portrait of the world of writers and publishing is much too sharp to be overlooked."
"Both entertaining and thought-provoking, appealing to most readers of both commercial and literary fiction."
"Lit Life is almost irresponsibly intoxicating."
"Taut, fast-pace work from an author who knows as much about writing fiction as he does about the fiction biz."
"Wenzel has--a sly affinity for embellishment, portraiture and blistering caricature and a well-turned ear for the expertly aimed zinger."
