The Man Who Had Everything [EPUB ebook] 

‚The story of a rich and successful playwright, playboy of society, facing in middle life the emptiness of his grasp on real life, the incompleteness of his own development. The background shifts from New York to France, with an abortive attempt to recapture a youthful dream; then back again, with perhaps a deeper understanding of his own reasons for failure.‘ –Kirkus Reviews
