The Man Behind The Da Vinci Code

This is the first biography of Dan Brown to be published. It chronicles Brown's upbringing, his rise to bestsellerdom, the many fascinating connections between his life and his work, the sometimes mysterious and quirky nuances to his character, and his recent struggles to protect a sense of anonymity by drawing into a sheltered and isolated society of his own making.

The book will also reveal little-known details of Brown's unusual work habits which involve gravity boots, an antique hourglass, and voice-recognition technology, along with an overview of his struggles as a writer pre-Da Vinci Code and the windfall that occurred post-Da Vinci Code.
