\n"A brilliant dark comedy about second acts\, creative appropriation\, and the racial i dentity-industrial complex Jane has high hopes her life is about to turn a round. After years of living precariously\, she\, her painter husband\, Le nny\, and their two kids have landed a stint as house sitters in a friend' s luxurious home high in the hills above Los Angeles\, a gig that coincide s magically with Jane's sabbatical. If she can just finish her latest nove l\, Nusu Nusu\, the centuries-spanning epic Lenny refers to as her "mulatt o War and Peace\," she'll have tenure and some semblance of stability and success within her grasp. But things don't work out quite as hoped. In sea rch of a plan B\, like countless writers before her Jane turns her despera te gaze to Hollywood. When she finagles a meeting with a hot young produce r with a seven-figure deal to create "diverse content" for a streaming net work\, he seems excited to work with a "real writer" to create what he env isions as the greatest biracial comedy ever to hit the small screen. Thing s finally seem to be going right for Jane--until they go terribly wrong"-- Provided by publisher.
