"It must have been an amusing scene, me shivering on a doorstep with my face in my hands. I’ll have to be amused by it sometime." --from Welcome to Yesterday
Not since Dashiell Hammett has dialogue crackled like this. From former New York Post "Page Six" columnist Ian Spiegelman comes a modern noir thriller set in the world of New York gossip. Welcome to Yesterday is a reader’s delight, striking the perfect balance of intelligent prose and society’s obsession with celebrity -- throw in a murder, and the effect is electric.
Leon Koch is not having a good day. And his night’s about to get worse. When a drug-addicted talent agent -- whom Koch, a young reporter at New York’s most powerful gossip column, had just disgraced -- is found dead, Koch wakes up at the center of the scandal. Suddenly, the spotlight’s on him. He must discover the real story behind the death, while maneuvering through the world of Manhattan gossip -- encountering a steady stream of starlets, superstars, and publicists -- all the while avoiding the police and his new editor-in-chief.
Through his laconic, hard working and harder-drinking antihero, Spiegelman offers readers an insider’s glimpse into the world of celebrity journalism with the authority and skill of a born stylist.
