Critics Review
Nicolas Giacobone has done the impossible. The Crossed-Out Notebook is a meta-fictional page-turner that grapples as much with Beckett as with Pretty Woman, as much with The Beatles as with Fellini. Also hidden in these pages are gems about what it takes to sit down in your pajamas everyday and attempt to put worlds to words. - Daniel Magariel, author of One of the Boys
A deceptively straightforward slack-wire act of a novel that probes the hairline crack between selling art and selling out. - Nell Zink, author of MislaidThis stylish debut novel by an Oscar-winning Argentine screenwriter (he co-wrote Birdman) is a suspenseful, darkly funny exploration of the creative process and the porous boundary between reality and fiction. Highly recommended - The Mail on Sunday, ‘The Best New Fiction’About The Author
