Overview
- The English-language debut from Swift Press follows Asher Baum, a middle-aged writer whose alleged harassment of a journalist threatens his career.
- Early reviews highlight strong biographical parallels, including characters reminiscent of Mia Farrow, a favored stepson and Ronan Farrow.
- Reporting notes that two state investigations previously found abuse allegations against Allen unsubstantiated, yet he remains marginalized in parts of the U.S. film industry.
- French, Italian and Spanish translations are expected soon, while no German publisher has been reported.
- Critics characterize the 166-page work as comic and autumnal, with some suggesting it may have begun life as a screenplay.
