About The Author
David Lamb is a native New Yorker, born and raised,
bitten with the writing bug since he was in elementary school and had
handwriting nobody could decipher. Like Charles Dickens, David grew up a poor
boy in the big city who found that the pen really is mightier than the sword.
In middle school Lamb's hero was David Lampel whose velvet voice could be heard
reporting the news over David's grandmother's radio. Whenever he heard him on
the radio, David would substitute Lamb for Lampel and pretend he was delivering
the news. Sure that he was destined to be a famous reporter David was happy to
go to a high school with a journalism program. Like most kids, by the time he
finished high school he had a whole new career in mind. After high school he
went to Hunter College and majored in Economics because he wanted to be cool
like that college kid who came to speak at his last year of high school. He was
an Economics major, he was dressed sharp and above-all the girls thought he was
the man! So like any unreasonable high school boy fueled by overactive hormones
David figured if he majored in Economics they'd think he was cool. After
finishing college David went on to law school at NYU, but all the time writing
was still his heart. While working as a lawyer by day, at night he transformed
into a writer and eventually wrote and produced the award-winning hit off-Broadway
romantic comedy Platanos Y Collard Greens. Being a writer and having the chance
make people laugh out loud while challenging them to think about the world
around them, and inspire each of us to believe in the power of love and our own
ability to overcome life's challenges is a great gift that David truly enjoys
and thanks you for allowing him to share with you in On Top Of The World (Until
The Bell Chimes).
About The Book
WINNER 2016 BEST FICTION-Pacific Book Awards. From
award-winning playwright David Lamb, creator of the hit play Platanos Y Collard
Greens, comes a fast and fun modern spin on Dickens that perfectly combines
laughs and love in a satire about race, class and celebrity worship. Scrooge,
or rather Scrooje, is music's biggest superstar, with one hundred million
albums sold and twenty-five million Twitter followers. Belle is a take no
prisoners legal shark whose beauty causes traffic accidents as she stylishly zips
through the sidewalks of Manhattan. They never imagined being music's most
powerful couple, but that's what happened when Belle fell head over heels and
gave the Coke-bottle glasses wearing, biggest nerd on campus the ultimate
makeover, turning him into
a fashion impresario whose style sets trends from Milan to NY Fashion Week.
Then it happens. Belle realizes too late she's created a chart-topping monster
as Scrooje ego explodes. Now, it's been three years since they’ve spoken. But
tonight at Hollywood s biggest red carpet event they'll be given a second
chance. With twenty-five million viewers tuned in will Scrooje finally shed his
ego, jeopardize his image and declare his love for Belle? Will Belle even give
him a chance? The Romantic Times says On Top of the World is "hilarious,
highly entertaining, incredibly fun," and ESSENCE best-selling author,
Nancey Flowers, proclaims that its a "Fun and Entertaining story of
fighting for love against all odds!" While music star Talib Kweli says
that On Top Of The World is a "Dynamic novel about the price of fame
packed with so many laughs and so much heart I couldn't put it down."
