Get your Collector's Edition of SIDEWAYS Signed and Inscribed
Nearly 20 years ago a film comedy titled Sideways was released. It was directed by Alexander Payne and starred Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church as best friends on a bachelor bacchanal through wine country. The movie was faithfully based on my novel Sideways. A confessional novel, it mixed fiction and fact in what critics called a hilarious, deeply human comedy. Not many fans of the movie, which still resonates today, realize it was based on a book. And for good reason: my novel was released in a trade paperback and given no promotion. Now, from my new publisher Blackstone, it's been re-issued in a gorgeous hardcover, one I'm excited to autograph and inscribe. The film is a gem, but it was not the Immaculate Conception. It came into the world wholesale from my novel, and now, after nearly two decades of near anonymity, my Sideways novel has been restored to its rightful place in the collaborative pantheon that all great films rest on.
