Escape Artists has a first-look deal with Sony Pictures. The project will be produced by Escape Artists’ Todd Black, Jason Blumenthal, Steve Tisch and Bloomfield. The writer was, however, the subject of a PBS special in 1997 narrated by Robert Redford. This would be the first time any of Stegner’s novels have made it to the big or small screen. The screen adaptation is being penned by David Bloomfield. The book itself, published in 1987 by Random House, debuted to critical raves, is still in print today and boasts a cult following. EXCLUSIVE: Escape Artists just optioned Wallace Stegner’s critically acclaimed novel Crossing To Safety, a semi-autobiographical tome about two academic couples who meet in Madison, WI and follows their marriages and friendship over the course of several decades. NBC’s founder, David Sarnoff, who, to save his broadcast empire from disruptive visionaries, bullied one inventor (of electronic television) into alcoholic despair and another (this one of FM radio, and his boyhood friend) into suicide. Here are stories of an uncommon will to power, the power over information: Adolph Zukor, who took a technology once used as commonly as YouTube is today and made it the exclusive prerogative of a kingdom called Hollywood.

With all our media now traveling a single network, an unprecedented potential is building for centralized control over what Americans see and hear. In this age of an open Internet, it is easy to forget that every American information industry, beginning with the telephone, has eventually been taken captive by some ruthless monopoly or cartel. That said, The Vacationers is a holiday read in every way with a gently witty narrative that slips down as easily as a beachside cocktail. Straub's novel is cast from the same mould as the likes of Liza Klaussmann's Tigers in Red Weather and Maggie Shipstead's Seating Arrangements, although it's not quite as accomplished as either nothing really happens and none of the characters is particularly memorable, probably because the consciousness of each is jumped between in a rather arbitrary fashion. Compared to the state of the relationships around them, Charles and Lawrence are quite the perfect couple, but even so, Lawrence is slightly miffed at Franny's commandeering of her best friend for the duration of the trip – "two whole weeks with the Posts was not everyone's idea of a vacation" – not least because the two men are in the middle of making some important decisions about the direction their future together should take. It was one I was tempted to abandon however, the thing that really kept me reading was that Emma Straub does do a wonderful job capturing Mallorca in my. Sylvia's nursing a broken heart, though the pangs of which aren't quite enough to distract her from number one on her holiday "to do" list: lose her virginity. |
