5.0 out of 5 stars
Plot...,
By Judy Smith "judylynnsbooks" (jamestown, ky United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Max (Hardcover)
The story of the tycoons who created and built the motion picture industry...not in Hollywood but in New York City at the turn of the century. But in particular, it is the story of Max Britsky, born in the East Side ghetto of N.Y., penniless...and of his struggle to survive and to conquer the world he had entered. It is also the story of the woman he married, of love and hate and fraud and financial piracy and infighting, of loyalty and betrayal.

Almost too realistic to be novel - Max is so real,
By A Customer
This review is from: Max (Hardcover)
Every now and then you get an absolute delight when exploring authors you only knew vaguely, or had not read for a while.Howard Fast's Max is a surprise and a delight. Fast's writing style always keeps the story moving and captures the reader's interest. Max is a masterpiece. whether Max is based on one of the true life pioneers of the movie industry I don't know, but you believe every incident and action. All of the characters are real, and I really loved Max's ingrate mother. This is my book of the year.
