Luckily, Stern kept transcripts-over 14,000 pages worth. The whole enterprise was destined to become Newman’s authorized biography, but his feelings on the project soured in 1998, he gathered the tapes in a pile and set fire to them. With the actor’s encouragement, Stern also recorded hundreds of hours worth of interviews with his friends, family, and colleagues.
Between 19, Newman sat down with screenwriter Stewart Stern for a series of soul-baring interviews about his life and career. But that’s the particular magic trick of this memoir, assembled by way of a literary scavenger hunt. The audiobook is read by Gaiman himself, while a full-cast audio drama offers a more immersive journey through London Below.After six decades of Hollywood superstardom, it’s difficult to imagine that anything could remain unknown about Paul Newman.
Gaiman's urban fantasy takes the metropolis of London and rebuilds it into a unique realm of mythology, one that will leave you wondering what's really happening, a half-glance out of sight, the next time you find yourself wandering around the city. Now invisible and forgotten by London Above, Richard and Door-along with the trickster Marquis de Carabas and the stoic Hunter-must travel across Night's Bridge, seek an audience at the Earl's court, and acquire a rare key from the Black Friars for the angel Islington if either of them has a hope of returning to their former lives. It's a world that Richard Mayhew, a Scottish expatriate to the Big Smoke, slips into when he helps Door, a young woman on the run from unstoppable assassins who have killed her entire family. Neverwhere is a tale of London-not the city you know, but the London Below, a city unseen by the majority yet no less real, populated by the ignored, lost, and forgotten.
