JJ Abrams wrote a book and planting evidence

The fact that the output of Super8, the new film by JJ Abrams has been postponed from June to September is not necessarily bad news. Why is that clown of the creator of Lost and Fringe, the director of Star Trek and so on. etc.. always finds a way to keep us entertained in the downtime between films each other.

Usually run shady schemes and spreading useful clues for us to go mad in a vain attempt to deal with them. As with the first book, currently untitled, to be released in the U.S. in 2012 and in England the following year. London Book Fair last publishers have done nearly to blows to win the bids.


Of course: the marketing strategy used to bring the book to publishers seem to already own a signed script Abrams. The lucky editors have responded to calls that first alerted about the arrival of a mysterious manuscript, then received a package containing a book with certain words removed, then ac (r) task by rumors that had to be a novelist and a solitary volume able to "reinvent the experience of reading." In what way? The editors do not speak.

For now, we know that the co-author Doug Dorst is a Texan, in some unspecified point in the book (in the footnotes?) There is a love story and maybe it will be sold in a pack of cellophane along with photos, letters and notes. It's enough to fill the entire conjecture summer afternoons, and in any case, JJ Abrams is also working on the sequel to Cloverfield, Star Trek and Mission Impossible and at least two TV series: do you really believe that you will invent something else?
