Andrew Brewster Crawford, A. K. A: “A. B. C. ”, a playwright obsessed with the glamour, glory, and gloom of the Kennedy era, has written a play about the last day of J. F. K. ’s life in order to cast himself as the martyred president, win the love of a beautiful “Jackie Kennedy type” and live happily ever after in a Camelot of his own creation.
He’s got the great man down. The wind-swept haircut. The sailing-ready nautical digs. The Boston-by-way-of-Harvard accent. The easy witticisms to defuse tension. But in A. B. C. ’s quest to fashion himself after his hero, J. F. K. , and mount his magnum opus, he conducts himself more like L. B. J. , a man who believed that the quickest route from point A to point B ran underground.
O JACKIE! is a story about the internal and external chaos created when an artist with both a superman and an inferiority complex chooses to be the self he wishes he was, instead of the self he truly is.
Kevin Hageman (co-writer and creator of the LEGO Movies) on O Jackie!:
"A wonderfully stylish and funny portrait of a man gifted with such ambition, talent and self-destruction, I dare you to put the book down. "
"As the quote, 'There is no substitute for the real thing' came frequently to the mind of the book’s Andrew Brewster Crawford, it also came to my mind as I read this dazzling debut novel by Alexander Carver -- he is the real thing. "
