The British actor (yes he is British and can pull of an amazing American accent), and the House phenomenal actor, published his first novel in 1996, however when he handed the manuscript, he actually submitted it under a pen name so he wouldn’t earn the title ‘celebrity author’ that he was so dreading. The novel has been translated to French later.

\nWe’re not sure if the Home Alone child star intended to write an autobiography about his life, but in his 2006 Novel, Culkin, intentionally or not, lets the reader in by taking them on a somewhat twisted journey to the most private and darkest parts of his brain.
