«Karoo» is the literary novel by Steve Tesich, published by Seix Barral in paperback (560 pages, in Spanish).
Saul Karoo, a screenwriter in his fifties, cynical and a pathological liar, rewrites other people's scripts to turn them into commercial successes even though he strips them of artistic value. His life changes when he decides to do something for another person: an odyssey of humor and absurdity starring a detestable yet terribly human seeker of happiness.
Posthumous novel originally published in 1998; this 2013 edition belongs to the Biblioteca Formentor collection. Translation by Javier Calvo Perales.
For readers of literary fiction interested in the world of cinema and the contradictions of a cynical protagonist.
Stojan Steve Tesich was a Serbian-American screenwriter, playwright, and novelist. He won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay in 1979 for the film Breaking Away.
