Recenzii
A "New Yorker" "Book to Watch Out For"
A "Vulture" "Beach Read"
A "Christian Science Monitor" "10 Best Books of July"
"[A] wonderfully reported and thoughtful exploration..." Difficult Men" is grand entertainment, and will be fascinating for anyone curious about the perplexing miracles of how great television comes to be."
"--Wall Street Journal"
"Martin is a thorough reporter and artful storyteller, clearly entranced with, though not deluded by, his subjects... In between the delicious bits of insider trading, the book makes a strong if not terribly revelatory argument for the creative process."
"--Los Angeles Times"
"Martin offers sharp analysis of the advances in technology and storytelling that helped TV become the 21st century's predominant art form. But his best material comes from interviews with writers, directors, and others who dish about Weiner's egomania, Milch's battles with substance abuse, and Chase's weirdest acid trip ever."
"--Entertainment Weekly"
"Enjoyable, wildly readable."
"--Boston Globe"
"An engaging, entertaining, and utterly convincing chronicle of television's transformation... Martin operates with an enviable fearlessness, painting warts-and-all portraits of autocratic showrunners such as David Milch ("Deadwood"), David Simon ("The Wire") and Matthew Weiner ("Mad Men")... Anyone interested in television should read this book, no matter how much or how little they know about the shows it chronicles."
"--Newsday"
""Difficult Men," with its vigorous reporting and keen analysis, is one of those books that crystallizes a cultural moment and lets you savor it all the more."
--"Dallas"" Morning News"
"Martin's analysis is intelligent and his culture commentary will be of interest to fans of many of today's better-written shows."
"--Christian Science Monitor"
"Masterful... unveils the mysterious-to-all-but-insiders process that takes place in the rooms where TV shows are written."
"--New Orleans Times-Picayune"
'Difficult Men delivers what it promises. Martin had good
