Josh Brolin

'a candid, rollicking read…roars with honesty, chaos, self-awareness, literary ambition and drunken benders.' The Times From Josh Brolin, a unique and decidedly un-celebrity memoir, by turns affecting, funny, uncanny, and unforgettable. A remarkable and an unforgettable read. Weaving a latticework of different strands, moving back and forth through time, Josh Brolin captures a life marked by curiosity, pain, devotion, kindness, humor. He recounts an unconventional childhood far from Hollywood. Raised on a ranch in Paso Robles, California, he was surrounded as a child by the wolves, cougars and other wild animals gathered by his fearless and explosive mother, Jane Agee Brolin. Her tragic, early death haunts this book, and the force of her unforgettable personality is felt throughout. Brolin also brings to life his career in the film industry -from his breakout role in The Goonies to the set of No Country for Old Men-and the professional and personal ups and downs in between and since. With unflinching honesty but also great humor, he shares insights into relationships, addiction, love and fatherhood, while letting the white space in between words speak for itself. Grappling with the mysteries of life and death in a way that will catch readers by surprise, From Under the Truck is an audacious and riveting memoir from a born writer.

Explore the creation of Denis Villeneuve's Dune through this evocative fusion of star Josh Brolin's sublime writing and cinematographer Greig Fraser's candid set photography. During the shooting of Dune, director Denis Villeneuve asked Fraser if he would document the filming process using still photography. This unusual request led the cinematographer on an unexpected creative journey that yielded an electrifying gallery of photographs that were candid, spontaneous, abstract, and wholly evocative. Meanwhile, Brolin, a natural writer, was so moved by the experience of shooting Dune-in which he plays warmaster Gurney Halleck-that he captured his experiences in vivid, poignant prose. Close friends, Brolin and Fraser bonded further during production, solidifying a connection that led to this remarkable collaboration that seamlessly juxtaposes the actor's enthralling writing with the cinematographer's stunning images. A unique new way to experience life on the set of Villeneuve's Dune, this thrilling ode to the art of filmmaking from two of the most revered artists in the industry is an unmissable publishing event.
