About this ebook
The world is too much with Terence Wood, a fading Hollywood icon who stages his own death and seeks to live anonymously in a Maine coastal town, while his aspiring filmmaker son, his variously unhinged ex-wives and the hack obituary writer hired to complete his "posthumous" memoir set off in search of Wood's legacy. A caustic tale of love and death and lobster roll that asks the reader to re-imagine what it means to leave a mark and to live a life that matters.
