I’m uncomfortable with work that is published posthumously because I always wonder whether the author would have been happy about it or what would the author have wanted changed. With that said, I’m intrigued with the news of the publication of Marlon Brando’s coauthored book (the other author is dead as well), Fan Tan:
The book, which was published by Knopf on Thursday, originated as a screenplay and treatment. Set in the South Pacific in the late 1920s, it tells of the intrigue that develops between the roguish and “thick-of-thew” Captain Anatole (Annie) Doultry and the sexy, deadly pirate queen Madame Lai Choi San.
