FILM RIGHTS
Film rights to Tish Cohen’s debut novel, TOWN HOUSE, about an agoraphobic man living in a Boston townhouse (inherited from his rock star father) with his teenage son, optioned to Fox 2000 with Scott Free Productions producing, in a pre-empt, by Kassie Evashevski at Brillstein-Grey, on behalf of Daniel Lazar at Writers House. The book is currently on submission to publishers, and expected to close shortly.

I hope she gets the agoraphobia right.  Many literary treatments don’t portray it as the disabling neurological condition that it is.
