À propos de ce produit
Product Information
She teases and deceives. She writhes her way across the nation and beyond, seducing us all with her light and noise. Love her or hate her, you can't escape her. She's the American mediaand nobody understands her better than Scott Singer. A rising star in the world of public relations, Scott is a master at manipulating the news, especially when the news isn't good for his clients. To journalists, he's the dark prince of deception. To others, he's merely the product of an amoral corporate culture. Not that their opinions matter to Scott, who shelved his ego years ago. It's the only way to stay sane in a business that thrives on flying off the handle. The trouble begins on the first day of Sweeps, when a fifteen-year-old girl goes on a fatal shooting spree in her high school cafeteria. For the news networks, it's a ratings bonanza, especially when clues suggest that the tragedy was loosely inspired by a popular rap song. Suddenly America's outrage is focused on Hunta, a young L.A. hip-hop artist who was on the verge of becoming a mainstream star. Now he's Public Enemy Number One, and his life is about to get infinitely worse. Saving Hunta could be the crowning achievement of Scott's career, but he knows it won't be easy. To take control of the story, he'll have to upstage it. And to do that, he'll have to engineer a hoax more ambitious and more elaborate than any publicist has ever attempted before.

Reviews
"The verisimilitude of this novel -- the way it depicts the ugly amoral frenzy of modern media -- seems impeccable, which means it's at once entertaining and horrific. Slick and its hero are both very slick, but also savage and smart and funny and not without some redeeming glimmers of wisdom. " --Kurt Andersen, author of Turn of the Century " Slick is fast paced, witty and clever, just like Slick himself. An all too real slice of the PR man in action." -Jay Cooper, Greenberg Traurig, LLP, former Former President, National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences "Daniel Price stalks the billion-footed beast of Tom Wolfe's description in this remarkably assured debut novel. By turns moving, caustic, plaintive and denunciatory, the consistently engrossing Slick is a social-hyperrealist portrait of our media-damaged society. It's Bonfire of the Vanities for the 24-hour news era. Not to mention slick as hell. " -Carina Chocano, author of Do You Love Me or Am I Just Paranoid? : The Serial Monogamist's Guide to Love " Slick is an original, outrageous, hilarious novel of media intrigue and manipulation, with an anti-hero flack who is part Carville, part Barnum. I love it." -John Stauber, co-author, Weapons of Mass Deception "In the modern world in which truths and realities are defined through news and information, we turn to the media for the answers to all our questions. Slick is a compelling tale of crime, sex, and deception and the need to cover the truth through the crazy schemes of crossing and double-crossing. Undaunted publicist Scott Singer is the best at what he does; he is known for his genius manipulation. "Slick", as his nickname describes, works strictly for money, but it all changes when he discovers his newest and ingenious publicity stunt-- a young girl named Harmony Price. This isn't just a story of a conspiracy; it's a subtle commentary on our media-saturated society and the notion that truth and lies are never only black and white. Slick provocatively shows that author Daniel Price has clearly grasped the field of publicity and its importance in our culture today. It is definitely one of the most entertaining novels I've read regarding the world of PR." -Michael Levine, founder of Levine Communications, author of Guerilla PR From the Hardcover edition., "The verisimilitude of this novel -- the way it depicts the ugly amoral frenzy of modern media -- seems impeccable, which means it's at once entertaining and horrific.Slickand its hero are both very slick, but also savage and smart and funny and not without some redeeming glimmers of wisdom.
