Screenwriter and Emmy-winning actor Michael Imperioli has just published his first novel, 'The Perfume Burned His Eyes.' The story follows a 17-year old who has been compared to Holden Caulfield, minus the cynicism. But, the most appealing aspect of the book is arguably the author’s fascination with rock icon, Lou Reed. In the story, protagonist Matthew is a teenager who doesn’t know his father. His mother decides they should move from the Queens apartment to Manhattan, circa 1976. There, he meets a fictionalized version of Lou Reed, who later becomes somewhat of a mentor and somewhat of a father-figure. The book has received praise from Booklist, Publishers Weekly, Kirkus Reviews, and even author Joyce Carol Oates. The author described the debut novel as “Vividly imagined, compelling, and sympathetic… 'The Perfume Burned His Eyes' convinced with the force of its emotional intensity.” Most fans will recognize Michael Imperioli from his days on 'The Sopranos,' but his ever-extending resume also includes 'Goodfellas,' 'Summer of Sam,' and 'The Lovely Bones.' In addition, some of his more recent television appearances include shows like 'Blue Bloods,' 'Lucifer,' and the new comedy, 'Alex Inc.' In this exclusive interview, Michael Imperioli talks about his evolution as a writer, the difference in prose and screenplays, some of his favorite authors, and of course, his fascination with rock legend, Lou Reed.
