List of works by William Monahan

This list of works by William Monahan classifies all known works by William Monahan (born November 3 1960), an American screenwriter, literary novelist, and former journalist. He was awarded a 1997 Pushcart Prize for his short fiction, and in 2007 won a WGA Award and an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for "The Departed", his second produced script.

Monahan attended the University of Massachusetts at Amherst in the 1980s to study English literature, and later wrote fiction in several of the zines and literary magazines that had recently launched in the Pioneer Valley; he also played guitar in a local band called the Slags. [cite journal | author= William Georgiades |title=Contributors Notes | journal =Perkins Press | volume =2 | issue =4 | date =1991 "William Monohan ["sic"] 'writes fiction and plays guitar for the Slags.'

In 1994 Monahan moved to New York City and began writing for the alternative weekly newspaper "New York Press". Over the following years he wrote and edited for various magazines, including the last four issues of "Spy".

In 1998, Monahan sold "Light House" to Penguin Putnam and was hired by Warner Bros. to adapt it into a film. He committed to a screenwriting career while waiting for his novel to be published as "Light House: A Trifle" in 2000; it garnered critical acclaim but had lackluster sales. However, in subsequent years he worked heavily as a screenwriter; his first produced screenplay would be "Kingdom of Heaven", released to theaters in 2005. He currently resides on the North Shore of Massachusetts with his wife and two children.

"Light House: A Trifle"

William Monahan's first book was "Light House: A Trifle", a satirical novel published in 2000. It is a work intentionally referential to the satirical novels of the early 19th-century British author Thomas Love Peacock, such as "Headlong Hall" and "Nightmare Abbey", and tells the story of an artist named Tim Picasso who seeks refuge at a New England inn in the middle of a nor'easter as he runs afoul of a drug lord.

It was originally serialized in the Amherst literary magazine "Old Crow Review" from 1993 to 1995 (See section Literature published in Massachusetts).cite news |title=Writer's 'trifle' Aims Higher |author=Darcy Cosper |date=2001-10-02 |publisher="The Hartford Courant" through " [http://www.lexisnexis.com/universe LexisNexis Academic] "] In 1998 Monahan sold "Light House" to Riverhead Books, a Penguin Group imprint. Subsequently, Warner Bros. optioned the film rights while the manuscript remained unpublished and hired Monahan to write the screenplay adaptation. Penguin Putnam delayed publishing the novel for two years in order to release it concurrent with the anticipated film release, however the film was never produced. Finally, in 2000, the novel was published as "Light House: A Trifle" to critical acclaim.cite press release |title=Van Morrison, Terry George and Bill Monahan honored in LA |date=2007-02-26 |publisher=US-Ireland Alliance |url=http://www.us-irelandalliance.org/wmspage.cfm?parm1=622 |accessdate=2007-03-05] cite news |title=His success story?

Monahan wrote a comic serial narrative at "New York Press" that made satirical reference to his first novel and his literary career (See "Dining Late with Claude La Badarian"">Claude La Badarian) and went on a book tour billed as the "Minor Novelists Tour" with his friend Bruno Maddox, another former "Spy" editor.

Literature published in New York City

"New York Press" (1994, vol. 7)

In 1988, publisher Russ Smith founded a freely-distributed alternative weekly newspaper in New York City called "New York Press", which would " [build] much of its reputation by selling itself as the anti-Voice, the heir apparent to "The Voice"'s cultural niche".

In 1995 Monahan contributed several controversial essays to "New York Press", including "The Angel Factory", "Heroin", and "Dr. Rosenthal, I Presume"; [cite news |title=Oscar-Winner William Monahan's (Poorly Documented) Past Life |author=Jon Fine |date=2007-02-26 |work=BusinessWeek |url=http://www.businessweek.com/innovate/FineOnMedia/archives/2007/02/oscar-winner_wi.html |accessdate=2007-03-06] cite news |title=PUSHING 30 / Heroin Isn't `Back' - It Really Never Left |author=Jon Fine |date=1996-08-27 |publisher="Newsday" through " [http://www.lexisnexis.com/universe LexisNexis Academic] " ] he would not attain a similar level of controversy with his journalism in later years.

Reception

Monahan's first cover story of the year, titled "The Angel Factory", attacked the Catholic Church for exceeding its charter and emboldening aggressive anti-abortion activists such as John Salvi, the convicted murderer who carried out two fatal attacks on two abortion clinics in Massachusetts, on December 30, 1994. [William Monahan. "The Angel Factory: Making Martyrs & Monsters", "New York Press", vol. 8, no. 3 (January 18–24, 1995).] [cite news |title=Man Guilty Of 2 Murders In Storming Abortion Sites |author=Fox Butterfield |date=1996-03-19 |work=The New York Times |url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F03E3DC1739F93AA25750C0A960958260 |accessdate=2007-12-15] This provoked a deluge of letters from incensed readers, among them the President of the Catholic League William A. Donohue, who described Monahan as "a spoiled brat" disappointed with the Catholic Church because " [it] didn't quite meet his adult expectations" and expected he would probably "have much to rant about in the future" given that Catholics were becoming more participatory. [cite news |title=The Mail: Alter Boy |author=William A. Donohue |publisher="New York Press", vol. 8, no. 4 (January 25–31, 1995) |quote=There is a difference between reasonable criticism and irrational diatribes, and if anyone wants to know what qualifies as the latter, I would advise them to read William Monahan's screed "The Angel Factory." Poor Bill, the Catholic Church didn't quite meet his adult expectations and now, like a spoiled brat, he turns his disappointment into rage. And given the willingness of lay Catholics to become more participatory (I'm sure he likes that word), chances are that bitter Bill will have much to rant about in the future.—William A. Donohue, President, Catholic League, Manhattan] The Catholic League included Monahan's cover story in their annual "Report on Anti-Catholicism", complaining that the "article attacked the Church at length, criticizing the sacraments, religious, saints, martyrdom, the Pope, Catholic education, etc..". The letters from readers in the following weeks were focused on dissecting "The Angel Factory" on its merits and responded to the extremist nature of some of the first letters. One reader found "Monahan's selective and erroneous interpretations of the Catholic Church's teachings offensive" and believed "the organized pro-life movement [had] done everything it [could] to discourage any law-breaking activities", ["The Mail: God's Spokesman", "New York Press", vol. 8, no. 5 (February 1–7, 1995).] while another reader " [identified] with Monahan's growing dismay at his former church's high profile in abortion-clinic harassment". ["The Mail: Left in the Church", "New York Press", vol. 8, no. 5 (February 1–7, 1995).] Finally, a reader who had been adopted as a child scorned a group of readers from the first week's letters, who appeared to want to " [decide] what options women should be allowed to consider" and challenged them by proposing that if " [they] really want to rescue babies, rescue them from a life of poverty and neglect, like my parents did". ["The Mail: The Real Test", "New York Press", vol. 8, no. 5 (February 1–7, 1995).]

In a cover story titled "Heroin" (a slightly different version was later published in "Old Crow Review"), Monahan warned that "heroin's a dangerous, attractive, and highly addictive drug" before arguing that "if you know that going in, and if you're not an idiot, you can use it carefully, extract pleasure, not get addicted, and have a wonderful, controlled experience with a folk medicine as old as recorded history".William Monahan. "Heroin: What Your Uncle Ted Doesn't Know About It", "New York Press", vol. 8, no. 17 (April 26–May 2, 1995).] The article explained in great detail the history, production, use of, and science behind heroin, aiming to enlighten a discussion Monahan believed was largely controlled by "either nervous nellies who are afraid of everything, or victims who should have been". The response from readers ranged from supportive, to amused, to sharply critical, and even to charges of irresponsible journalism, filling the letters column for the following five issues. ["The Mail", "New York Press", vol. 8, from no. 18 (May 3–9, 1995) until no. 22 (May 31–June 6, 1995).] In the first week, countering the many readers who enjoyed the piece, several former addicts cautioned Monahan about his inexperience, beginning with one who had "encountered very few who [could walk] the tightrope between addiction and stopping" [cite news |title=The Mail: See Your Local Dealer |publisher="New York Press", vol. 8, no. 18 (May 3–9, 1995) ] and one who in 15 years of experience with heroin had "never met a sick, desperate junkie who didn't have it well under control at the start", [cite news |title=The Mail: To the Junkyard |publisher="New York Press", vol. 8, no. 18 (May 3–9, 1995) ] while another admitted that "there are also users who are not predisposed to addiction, but given a fair chance, junk will usually win out and take hold"; [cite news |title=The Mail: Betcha Can't Eat Just One |publisher="New York Press", vol. 8, no. 18 (May 3–9, 1995) ] one reader had done "William Monahan's little experiment for a few weeks earlier [in the] year" and had "got out", vouching that the "article is pretty much on the money". [cite news |title=The Mail: Killer Pickup Line |publisher="New York Press", vol. 8, no. 18 (May 3–9, 1995) ] In response to the first week's letters, Monahan retorted that what he had "said about addicts trying to control the debate—indeed, any conversation—about heroin, was obviously profoundly accurate". [cite news |title=The Mail: William Monahan replies to Just Say Whoa |publisher="New York Press", vol. 8, no. 18 (May 3–9, 1995) |quote=William Monahan replies: What I said about addicts trying to control the debate—indeed, any conversation—about heroin, was obviously profoundly accurate. For the record, I have far less interest in heroin than any of these correspondents, to whom heroin, whether they're doing it or not doing it, seems to be their main way to be interested in themselves. These people say, and have to say, You are like me. You will end up like me. What heroin does, they say, is what happened to me. And they have to believe it, they're obligated, because otherwise their cosmology flies to pieces, and they're in the middle of a different universe (which is to say, the real one), looking at someone less admirable in the mirror. Someone, say, who couldn't handle opiates, or freedom.
That's impossible—can't be dealt with—so therefore nobody can handle opiates, and there is no freedom—a curious thesis. When opiates were available on the shelves, some people repeatedly narcotized themselves until they died, and some people were building the city and civilization you're sitting in now. What caused that divorcement of occupation?
You tell me. You're obviously the experts.
I didn't make up reality, I only live here.] In the ensuing weeks the letters continued to stream in, with one reader describing the discussion as an "orgiastic burst of self-righteousness" that "was as comical as it was predictable", [cite news |title=The Mail: Aborted Discussion |publisher="New York Press", vol. 8, no. 20 (May 18–24, 1995) ] although the next year "Newsday"'s Jon Fine characterized the readers' discussion on heroin as one "in which, [he] thought, the drug was discussed with greater honesty and clarity than you see almost anywhere else".

The week after "The New York Times" published A. M. Rosenthal's op-ed "The Possible Dream", which recommended the United States spend $100 million to eradicate female genital mutilation in Africa, Monahan published a rebuttal in "New York Press" titled "Dr. Rosenthal, I Presume", charging Rosenthal with "cultural imperialism" and explaining that although "clitorectomy is savage, obviously […] it's certainly the least of Africa's problems, and is in fact a response to a number of problems one happens to run across controlling one's environment while living in the bush". [cite news |title=On My Mind: The Possible Dream |author=A. M. Rosenthal |date=1995-06-13 |work=The New York Times |url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=990CE1DD1530F930A25755C0A963958260 |accessdate=2007-11-10] [William Monahan. "Dr. Rosenthal, I Presume: Don't Burden Yourself", "New York Press", vol. 8, no. 25 (June 21–27, 1995).] Many "NYPress" readers expressed their disgust in the letters column, including fellow "NYPress" colleague Dawn Eden, who believed the piece "failed as satire because, despite Monahan's attempts at humor, he takes pains to assure readers that he really means it" and " [found] Monahan's reduction of theology facile at best, insulting at worst". [cite news |title=The Mail: Eden Casts Out |author=Dawn Eden |publisher="New York Press", vol. 8, no. 26 (June 28–July 4, 1995)] However, the same week "New York Press" published "Dr. Rosenthal, I Presume", "The New York Times" published a rebuttal from one of its readers who also considered Rosenthal's plan ill-informed and likely to fail because it defines the practice in "terms of male power and sexual repression" instead of as a "mark of cultural identity" designating "one's membership in one's tribe". [cite news |title=Africans View Circumcision as Rite |date=1995-06-22 |work=The New York Times |url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=990CEFDA173EF931A15755C0A963958260 |accessdate=2007-11-10] Finally, a couple of weeks later a "New York Press" reader pointed out that Monahan was "simply speaking about the necessity of nonintervention—or not to forcefully impose our value judgments on other countries". [cite news |title=The Mail: Custer's Stand |publisher="New York Press", vol. 8, no. 28 (July 12–18, 1995) ]

Several months after the Unabomber's letter to "The New York Times", dated April 24, 1995, in which he promised "to desist from terrorism" if the "Times" or a similarly respected news journal would publish , Monahan wrote an article titled "Ceci n'est pas une bombe" in which he theorized, after studying the publicly available evidence at the time, that the " [Unabomber's] whole campaign, beneath his variety of appearances (airline hater here, anti-academic there, faux Luddite all over the place), is all about making a bizarre play on the Middle English sense of the word 'wood.' ". [William Monahan. "Ceci n'est pas une bombe: The Unexpectedly Literary Unabom Thing", "New York Press", vol. 8, no. 29 (July 19–25, 1995).] "The Nation"'s Alexander Cockburn was critical of the article in which "Monahan reckons that the Bomber picks his targets out of Who's Who, with special attention to woody names" and counterposed that "America was originally covered with trees, well over half the street names probably have sylvan content, and since many of our ancestors were in the woods too, the same etymology applies". [Alexander Cockburn. "Beat The Devil: Blame Him On Social Science". "The Nation" through " [http://www.lexisnexis.com/universe LexisNexis Academic] ", vol. 261, no. 6 (November 08, 1995)] However, Alston Chase, in his 2003 book "Harvard and the Unabomber", singled out Monahan as the only person to solve the Unabomber's lexically-based targeting methodology before the bomber was captured.

"Hamptons" magazine

In 1995, Monahan wrote a weekly column for the seasonal "Hamptons" magazine. At the conclusion of a successful run of his column, which initially "appeared at the back of the book" and eventually "migrated to the masthead" replacing the "Editor's Note", he requested the job of editor of the magazine for the next summer; the publisher granted him the promotion. The next spring Monahan showed up in Long Island, New York and began working as the editor, but after three issues he quit because of what he described in his "New York Press" cover story "The Burning Deck: My Brilliant Career at "Hamptons" as a chaotic and "ridiculously unworkable" workplace environment.

"Maxim" magazine

On April 1, 1997, the United Kingdom-based men's magazine "Maxim" launched an American version of its brand. Monahan was hired to write for the New York-based transplant of "Maxim" during its first years; it had a "pushing-the-envelope style" and experienced rapid circulation growth, managing to outperform its competitors in the men's magazine category within a couple of years.cite news |title=William Monahan: His 'Departed' left Hong Kong for the USA |author=Susan Wloszczyna |date=2007-02-15 |work=USA Today |url=http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/movieawards/oscars/2007-02-15-screenwriters-monahan_x.htm |accessdate=2007-02-25] [cite news |title=Felix Dennis - owner of Dennis Publishing forwards Maxim magazine |author=Tony Silber |date=1999-04-15 |publisher="Folio: The Magazine for Magazine Management" reprinted by FindArticles.com |url=http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m3065/is_5_28/ai_54471794 |accessdate=2007-11-10]

"Dining Late with Claude La Badarian"

On June 21, 2001, the alternative weekly "New York Press" published a piece of fiction by Monahan in which a character named Claude La Badarian proposes a column titled "Dining Late with Claude La Badarian" to Henry, the publisher of "The Aristocrat" magazine, under the threat of blackmail. The column debuted the next week in "New York Press", pseudonymously written by Monahan as the fictional restaurant critic Claude La Badarian, taking the form of a weekly letter, addressed usually to Henry but occasionally addressed to others, including Jesus Christ, and well known magazine editors Tina Brown and Graydon Carter.cite news |title=The Last Supper: Being eventually a PROPOSAL for a column called "DINING LATE WITH CLAUDE LA BADARIAN, By Claude La Badarian" |author=William Monahan |date=2001-06-21 |work=New York Press |url=http://www.nypress.com/14/25/news&columns/culture.cfm |accessdate=2007-03-06] The comic narrative ran for a total of thirteen columns and made satirical reference to Monahan's literary career and his first novel "". Aside from the proposal, each column published in the print edition of "New York Press" contained a portrait of the mysterious Claude La Badarian, drawn by Antony Zito, a New York portrait painter and curator. Although the serial is a self-satire of Monahan, Claude La Badarian's adventures are modeled after the posthumous memoirs of the early 17th-century French aristocrat Claude de Bourdeille, comte de Montrésor.Ref_label|f|f|none

The Claude La Badarian character is a journalist and a novelist whose debut-novel is titled "Second Novel" and who is working on an ongoing novel. Occasionally, a fictional Monahan enters the narrative and in one encounter explains his intent to appropriate "Second Novel" as a working title for his next novel "which confronts the 'second novel' issue head-on" as well as to fictionalize "a blackmailed dining column written by a delusional media scumbag" as "a small yet integral part of" "Second Novel".

He has yet to follow-up with the alleged second novel.Ref_label|g|g|none

The authorship of the "Dining Late with Claude La Badarian" column was a mystery to those readers of "New York Press" who had not read the initial proposal. The occasional reader surmised Monahan was the author, but others were bewildered despite the many clues available in the columns. A few readers thought Claude La Badarian was Taki Theodoracopulos, a fellow "NYPress" columnist, or at least "a small nod in Taki’s direction".Ref_label|h|h|none [cite news |title=MAILBOX |date=2001-08-28 |publisher="New York Press", vol. 14, no. 35 |url=http://www.nypress.com/14/35/mail/mail.cfm |accessdate=2007-11-10 ] [cite news |title=MAILBOX |date=2001-09-25 |publisher="New York Press", vol. 14, no. 39 |url=http://www.nypress.com/14/39/mail/mail.cfm |accessdate=2007-11-10 ] In a brief mention of an upcoming book party for "Light House" in New York City, "The New York Post"'s Page Six gossip column jested that the " [hosts are] hoping Monahan's nemesis, "Aristocrat" magazine scribe Claude La Badarian, who's been baiting him in the "New York Press", doesn't cause a scene".

Notes

*a. Note_label|a|a|none William Georgiades was the sole editor of "Perkins Press", located on Perkins Ave. in Northampton, Massachusetts. The zine was printed on in to cm|11.4|17 tabloid newsprint and ran from 1990 to 1994.
*b. Note_label|b|b|none All issues of "Old Crow Review" are available at the W.E.B. Du Bois Library located at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Each periodical is 100 pgs. long. Tawnya Kelley-Tiskus was the editor-in-chief and John Gibney was the publisher.
*c. Note_label|c|c|none The listed "New York Press" material was retrievable from the New York Public Library as of late 2007. All volumes of "New York Press" are available at the NYPL, although some issues are missing from certain volumes, and likewise some pages are missing from certain issues. The Microform Reading Room has volumes 1 to 10 available on microform. The DeWitt Wallace Periodical Room has volumes 11 to current available in the original newsprint, although only the most recent issues are available on the shelves with the older volumes available on a truck if requested from the desk. The microform collection is slightly more complete than the newsprint issues, however, both have problems: the second page of "Driving the Miasma" (2/95) is missing in the microform reel, and the entire cover story "The Last American Smoker" (6/99) is missing in the newsprint stacks except for a torn up front page. Occasionally the text in both microform and newsprint issues is covered by a mailing address adhesive label.
*d. Note_label|d|d|none The "Scouting Report", "First Person", "New York City", and "Tinytown" columns were regular staples of the alternative weekly "New York Press", not usually longer than a single newsprint page, and written by different writers every week.
*e. Note_label|e|e|none Monahan's book reviews for "The New York Post" are all available on microform at the New York Public Library in New York City as of late 2007. The only book review available through " [http://www.lexisnexis.com/universe LexisNexis Academic] " is Monahan's last one on Jay Robert Nash's "Spies" since the LexisNexis archive of "The New York Post" only goes back to 1998.
*f. Note_label|f|f|none In the last "Dining Late with Claude La Badarian" column, "The Grapes Of Claude", Monahan renames his character Claude La Badarian as Mr. Packwood, of Montresor Creative Services, Inc. and explains that the critical word is "Montresor." The French aristocrat Claude de Bourdeille, comte de Montrésor, similarly to Claude La Badarian, was on the run from authorities and lived in exile for a duration; he wrote about these experiences in "Mémoires", published posthumously in 1663, written with a candid frankness and quite interesting for scholars of the period.
