In a re-wilded, near-future England, a group of activists led by a writer try to make a noise in a society that refuses to hear its people. A re-wilded, half-submerged England is home to a divided society split into "haves" and "have-nots." Susan, once a teacher and writer, leads a small group of activists as they try to spread words—any words—in a world that no longer produces books. The Ghostwriters must try to revive ideas and get their message out whilst pitted against a system that shuts down thought and learning. After the break-up of the United Kingdom, war in Europe, starvation, and pandemic, the Capital is a society under siege. People just manage to survive on rations and scraps that they thieve. Always monitored, but never protected, life is cheap among the population. The Ghostwriters must navigate dangers, but who can be trusted and what secrets lie beneath the surface of the Old Capital?

In dieser reich illustrierten Biografie wird der Aufstieg Michael Fassbenders vom Tellerwäscher im irischen Killarney bis zu einem der gefragtesten Darsteller in Hollywood geschildert. Autor Jim Maloney erzählt, wie ein Zettel am Schwarzen Brett in der Schule ihn eher zufällig zur Schauspielerei brachte, wie er 2001 mit Steven Spielbergs Serie BAND OF BROTHERS einen ersten Hauch Hollywoodluft schnuppern konnte, danach allerdings einige Jahre am Hungertuch nagen musste, bis er 2008 endlich den Durchbruch schaffte. Der Autor gibt Einblicke in das Privatleben des zurückhaltenden Stars und beleuchtet seine außergewöhnliche Arbeitsweise als Method Actor, durch die er schon mit Größen wie Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro und Al Pacino verglichen worden ist. Zudem werden wichtige Wegbegleiter und Mentoren vorgestellt, die ihn privat und als Künstler beeinflusst haben. Zahlreiche O-Töne und Fotos dokumentieren den faszinierenden Weg Fassbenders. Ein wahres Lesevergnügen für Fans des bodenständigen Schauspielers!
