<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In 1953 Ray Bradbury joined film director John Huston in Ireland to write the screenplay for Moby Dick. Bradbury's seven-month sojourn and his complicated relationship with Huston form the basis of this wonderful novel of a green screenwriter coming to Ireland to confront a great director and a mythical beast and, in the bargain, discovering the secrets of the Irish.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In 1953, the brilliant but terrifying titan of cinema John Huston summons the young writer Ray Bradbury to Ireland. The apprehensive scribe's quest is to capture on paper the fiercest of all literary beasts -- Moby Dick -- in the form of a workable screenplay so the great director can begin filming.</p><p>But from the moment he sets foot on Irish soil, the author embarks on an unexpected odyssey. Meet congenial IRA terrorists, tippling men of the cloth impish playwrights, and the boyos at Heeber Finn's pub. In a land where myth is reality, poetry is plentiful, and life's misfortunes are always cause for celebration, <em>Green Shadows, White Whale</em> is the grandest tour of Ireland you'll ever experience -- with the irrepressible Ray Bradbury as your enthusiastic guide.</p>
