Aprašymas

Because no one will write an "un"authorized biography about Emmy-winning writer and actor Chris Elliott, he has done it himself. Reader, you're hereby warned that much of this book will be disturbing. "The Guy Under the Sheets "is a behind-the-scenes memoir so personal, so provocative, that Elliott nearly sued himself to halt the most shocking revelation, corroborated by numerous unnamed sources, is that Elliott is not the absurdist comedian that "Rolling Stone "once called "a genius." In fact, he's a slightly dimwitted no-talent from a celebrity family who managed to convince a whole generation of disillusioned youth that he was funny.
Few have seen his dark a ghastly childhood spent on Manhattan's posh Upper East Side; a torrid near-love affair with Lee Radziwill; a torrid real love affair with Shelley Winters; his first job, entertaining mobsters with his Judy Garland impersonation; and countless episodes from the life of a mediocre artist who somehow faked his way to the top--of semi-moderate fame and fortune.
But seriously, Elliott is a brilliantly comic bestselling writer--and while there is plenty of fictional fun in "The Guy Under the Sheets," also woven throughout are wonderful real life anecdotes, including Elliott's start at "Late Night with David Letterman," his work in films from "Groundhog Day "to "Cabin Boy," and much more. If the author does not prevail in his lawsuit, this book is bound to delight many new readers and loyal fans alike.
