'The riveting Sean Penn by Richard Kelly which tells a story of America and politics, publicity and character, is a book nobody should miss.' Andrew O'Hagan 'A fascinating 'oral history' of the actor-director, with countless interviews with family, friends and colleagues (Nicholson, Huston, Walken) and the ex-Mr Madonna himself.' Time Out 'A relentlessly entertaining insight to the most talented actor of his generation.' Guardian 'Revealing... comprehensive and impressive... Richard Kelly has done an excellent job.' Sunday Telegraph 'Highly readable... Essential reading for any admirer of the actor but also for those seeking a front-line account of American cinema over the past 25 years.' The Herald
