"Sammy Glick remains at the top of the Hollywood sleaze heap, a hustler nonpareil.... What Makes Sammy Run? Is still the quintessential novel about "the all-American heel.'" - Moredcai Richler, GQ
"Schulberg…grew up in Hollywood, the son of a producer, but he writes with both an industry insider’s keenness and a sympathy for those shunted to that industry’s sidelines. Hollywood, after all, is just one case of the way things work in our world."

@prex4 @TarzanWrites @collinlieberg From another thread of mine: I'm a new (huge) fan of Budd Schulberg. Just finished WHAT MAKES SAMMY RUN? The essay at the end is brilliant. Book published in 1941; essay published in 1989...

Didn’t quite reach Chris Finch levels but I did read more books I loved last year than usual. These are my favourites (What Makes Sammy Run by Budd Schulberg not pictured as I lent it to a friend and New Teeth by Simon Rich I read as an ebook) https://t.co/EVPpTF1ZxR
