Beskrivelse

AS SEEN IN THE MAJOR MOTION PICTURE "One of the most esoteric and far-fetched crimes in21st-century annals." -The Hollywood Reporter "A rare book heist that Danny Ocean may have applauded-except for one mistake." -Vanity Fair "A tragicomedy of errors." -Salon "They are the young people, the people with the idealism, the passion, the courage to do something interesting with their lives: an act of daring almost artistic in its originality. They are almost right." -The Guardian "One of the biggest art heists in FBI history." -The Times of London American Animals is a coming-of-age crime memoir centered around three childhood friends: Warren, Spencer, and Eric. Disillusioned with freshman year of college and determined to escape from their mundane Middle-American existences, the three hatch a plan to steal millions of dollars' worth of artwork and rare manuscripts from a university museum. The story that unfolds is a gripping adventure of teenage rebellion, from page-turning meetings with black-market art dealers in Amsterdam to the opulent galleries of Christie's auction house in Rockefeller Center. American Animals ushers the reader along a gut-wrenching ride of adolescent self-destruction. Providing a front-row seat to the inception, planning, and execution of the heist, while offering a rare glimpse into the evolution of a crime-all narrated by one of the perpetrators in a darkly comic, action-packed, true-crime caper.
