The Thousand Year Journey of Tobias Parker by Terry Tarnoff PDF Summary

Book Description: Fiction. Literary Nonfiction. California Interest. When screenwriter Tobias Parker discovers that every family on Earth is here to accomplish a particular task, he becomes determined to fulfill his family's destiny. He learns that a unique battle is passed through the generations from father to son and mother to daughter, and that once the mission is fulfilled the family takes its place in a kind of celestial jigsaw puzzle. As Tobias embarks on his quest, his life becomes a breathless whirlwind which throws Hollywood, a misbegotten romance, and an arcane religious artifact into a roiling stew. His topsy-turvy, existential journey takes him to some hilarious highs, devastating lows, and leads him to ponder a whole bagful of thought- provoking ideas. In the end, Tobias discovers his family's profound destiny and learns not only the meaning of his own life but provides a big clue for the rest of us as well. "THE THOUSAND YEAR JOURNEY OF TOBIAS PARKER is a tour de force. Hilariously funny, thoughtful and multi-dimensional, it's a roller coaster ride up and down San Francisco's Telegraph Hill and around Washington Square, fueled by a Hollywood action-adventure retelling of Wagner's biblical opera, Parsifal. Evoking the likes of Confederacy of Dunces sprinkled with Ask The Dust, our raving hero in this case, Tobias Parker, the prolific screenwriter, also brings to mind the movie hero Barton Fink as Tarnoff deeply mines what he knows, for laughs, romance and a little enlightenment on the side."—Jody Weiner "After reading THE BONE MAN OF BENARES, many of us hoped to hear more tales of adventure from Terry Tarnoff. He has done it again with his customary gusto and we don't need to worry about waiting for THE THOUSAND YEAR JOURNEY OF TOBIAS PARKER to be made into a film because when reading this delightful new book, you have a front row seat and are already in the movie itself. Terry Tarnoff has the gift of making the reader feel that he or she is part of the story. This is the gift of great story tellers."—David Amram
