One Hour to Read The Reading Experience, Blogged Recently in Kosinski, Jerzy Category Being There Filed Under Kosinski, Jerzy Tags Fiction Satire by onehourtoread on September 27, 2008 9:09 PM Permalink Comments (0) TrackBacks (0) There are some who say the book is always better than the movie. I don't entirely believe that, though I do think that some stories are better suited to books and some are better suited to film. When a movie is based on a book, the book isn't automatically better, though it definitely has the home field advantage. Having said all that, as I read "Being There," I started to think that this might be one case where the movie is actually better. They are at least very similar, I thought until I realized: Of course, they're very similar. Jerzy Kosinzki wrote both the novel and the screenplay, which I didn't know until I was halfway through the book. For those who don't know the story, here's a brief summary. The mentally-disabled Chance works in the garden of a rich old man. He has never left the man's house and can't even read or write. He can, however, watch television, and his imitation of what he sees on TV is what helps him function in life. When the old man dies, Chance is forced out of the house. He has nowhere to go, but soon by, well, chance, he is taken into the home of a wealthy business leader. When he says his name is "Chance the Gardener," it is mistaken for the WASP-ish Chauncey Gardiner. He eventually meets the President, and his simple talk about the garden is mistaken as a cogent analysis of the economy:

Kosinski's other novels include Steps (1968, National Book Award), Being There The Devil Tree Cockpit Passion Play (1978), and The Hermit of 69th Street The Painted Bird, which had made his personal and literary reputation, was not remotely autobiographical.

May 3, 1991, New York, N.Y., U.S.), Polish-born American writer whose novels were sociological studies of individuals in controlling and bureaucratic societies. At the age of six, upon the outbreak of World War II, Kosinski, a Jew, was separated from his parents and wandered through Poland and Russia, living by his wits and under threat of being discovered and killed by the Nazis. He became mute and did not regain his speech until 1947. From 1950 to 1955 he studied at the University of L z , receiving two M.A. degrees, in history and political science, and from 1955 to 1957 he was professor of sociology at the Polish Academy of Sciences.

Kosinski then took the literary world by storm with The Painted Bird (1965), a graphic, fictionalized retelling of his own horrific experiences as a Jewish child in World War II.
