Life to the Right of Hollywood

An insider's tale about Hollywood politics - rich and darkly humorous - of how being a conservative in Hollywood can be a career killer

Hollywood has catapulted Clinton Feast into celebrity with an Oscar nomination for starring in a film adaptation of Kafka's Metamorphosis, where he plays not a salesman who wakes as a bug, but a Wall Street broker turned to shit. However, fame and fortune are placed in jeopardy when the actors' conservative underpinnings threaten to out-him as a Republican in Hollywood during the 2004 presidential election. With his Oscar nod and an offer to play Captain American in a summer blockbuster at stake, he hides in a political closet and plays the part of a Hollywood liberal. It's there inside a sewer of politically-correct-global-know it all actors, agents, assistants, producers, publicist, and fans that Clinton Feast must find his own transformation.



Praise for LIFE TO THE RIGHT OF HOLLYWOOD



"The birth of a new genre, political satire for the Right. Mr. Lindsey is the GOP's answer to John Stewart."

- New York Times Bestselling author Michael Levin



"A hilarious lampooning of Hollywood's leftist culture. Reads like a perfect blend of Carl Hiaasen and Douglas Coupland, a sort of Mickey Rourke does Generation X."

-Rob Bignell, The Times-Standard



"Joseph Lindsey understands that the only way to properly describe Hollywood is with an engaging mix of biting wit and offbeat humor..."

- John Nolte, Editor-in-Chief Big Hollywood



"Joseph Lindsey had it all - especially 'indie' street cred as a breakout actor in the Nineties. What happened? No one would care were it not for Lindsey's dramatic real life personal transformation as disturbingly, hysterically re-imagined for the reader. Kafka would be proud."

- Mark Ebner, author Six Degrees of Paris Hilton, co-author, Hollywood, Interrupted.
