As a long, hot summer drags on, a cynical Toronto actor becomes involved with the American refugees--with disastrous results. Part dark satire, part political thriller, \u003ci\u003eDemocrats Abroad\u003c\/i\u003e is a chilling exploration of identity, betrayal, and the treacherous line between the personal and the political. \u003ci\u003eRadio:30\u003c\/i\u003e In the claustrophobic confines of a recording studio, Ron, king of the radio voice-overs, records a thirty-second ad for a fast food restaurant. Between takes, Ron reveals tricks of his trade, jokes around with his unseen recording engineer, and gradually reveals how the polished dishonesty of his profession has infected his personal life. As he struggles to reconcile his public and private personae, Ron's tongue begins to betray him, and what began as just another effortless pitch becomes a darkly comic study in crumbling confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chris Earle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1897289162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781897289167\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Scirocco Drama\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.65h x 5.73w x 0.25d","brand":"Chris Earle","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48587934892287,"sku":"9781897289167","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chris-earle-chris-earle-9781897289167","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
