Recensione:

PRAISE FOR TALES FROM MARGARITAVILLE

"Good natured tales of free-spirited characters . . . In fact, Mr. Buffett's lighthearted endorsement of adventure is so persuasive that, upon finishing the book, many readers will be tempted to get out their maps."--The New York Times Book Review

"Buffett created his own Lake Wobegon in a place called Heatwave."--Houston Chronicle

L'autore:

Singer/songwriter/author Jimmy Buffett has become a legend of popular culture as the composer of such classic songs as "Margaritaville" and "Cheeseburger in Paradise." He has recorded more than thirty albums, most of which have gone gold, platinum, or multiplatinum. His sold-out concert tours are an annual rite of summer for his fans, affectionately known as Parrotheads, who dress in outrageous tropical outfits and headwear.

Buffett collaborated with Pulitzer prize-winning author Herman Wouk on an award-winning musical adaptation of Wouk's novel Don't Stop the Carnival. Buffett is also one of only six authors who have had #1 New York Times bestsellers in both fiction (Where is Joe Merchant?) and nonfiction (A Pirate Looks at Fifty). The other five authors who share this distinction are Ernest Hemingway, John Steinbeck, William Styron, Irving Wallace, and Dr. Seuss.
