Tom Benedek, “Peloponnesia”

A special invitation to celebrate the publication of my friend Tom Benedek’s novel “Peloponnesia”:

Dear Friends:

My novel, Peloponnesia, is available now at an independent book store near you, Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, Bn.com, Kindle. ITunes, etc. There will be readings from the book by Lisa Jane Persky, Stephen Nathan, Jesse Nathan, Brandy Lopez and Rob Smith at the Ruskin Theatre at Santa Monica Airport on March 11 at 7PM, presented by Library Girl. Hope to see you there this Sunday!

Best, Tom Benedek

“What’s the real version of our lives? How do movies — and who we love or are unable to love — shape us? Wildly original, in language that sparks and glints off the page, Peloponnesia is funny, moving and just plain brilliant.” — Caroline Leavitt, author of Pictures of You

“Who in town is this story based on? Peloponnesia is a darkly funny book that is also very true to life.” — David Brown, producer of The Sting, Jaws, Cocoon

“In Peloponnesia, Tom nails the essence of the garden of delights that is the movie business — an intoxicating, beguiling, exhausting, inescapable maze.” — Stanley Weiser, screenwriter of Wall Street, W

“Turning his insider’s eye on the movie business, Tom Benedek gives us, in Peloponnesia, a dark comedy that’s also a profound and affecting meditation on storytelling — the stories we tell ourselves and the stories that shape our lives. Crackling with insight and inventiveness.” — Jenefer Shute, author of Life-Size, User I.D.

So all you folks in the L.A. area, head out to the Ruskin Theatre at Santa Monica Airport on March 11 at 7PM for a special evening.
