"I loved this book. I laughed, I cried... sure to open the hearts and minds of all who read it. And brimming with Hollywood potential!" -Mark Ramsey, Board Member, Broadcast Film Critics Association
I AM KEATS is a big-hearted, offbeat novel that takes on a fascinating question...
If you had the opportunity to erase someone's past and rewrite his story, to give him a do-over, would you take it? And more importantly, should you?
Peter Anderson's life is falling apart. His brother is a slacker, his son is in trouble at school, and his animation studio is on the brink of disaster. And despite being a seasoned executive, used to running things his way, the world is not going according to plan.
When his brother has an accident and loses his memory, Peter, the professional storyteller, comes up with a brilliant idea: create a new, "successful" story for his brother. Rewrite and reinvent his entire life!
But, unlike his cartoons, his brother isn't quite so easy to control, and consequences that neither of them could ever have foreseen spin Peter's life out of control.
He'll eventually discover that life isn't a story, and people are not characters to be scripted and directed. Life is a poem. Life is a painting. Life is a dance.
Life... is a song. And none of us know the melody.
A quirky, emotional gut-check of a story, I AM KEATS is a brilliant meditation on success, love, letting go, and finding one's self again.
