Bestselling author David Evanier (Making the Wiseguys Weep, The Jimmy Rosselli Story) presents Woody, the first biography of Woody Allen in over a decade. In it, he discusses key movies, plays and prose as well as Allen’s personal life. Evanier tackles the themes that Allen has spent a lifetime sorting through in art: morality, sexuality, Judaism, the eternal struggle of head and heart.
