Title: Will Readers Care Beyond Los Angeles?
Product review: Hollywood insiders have always been smitten with movies and television shows about the downright mean business they work in. So it would be no surprise to me if many of those same people found this book a delightfully literary black comedy. Dori carter writes well, with the voice of her narrator, Frankie Jordan almost feeling like someone Sue Grafton or Susan Isaacs would have created.Unfortunately she's not someone I ever rooted for in the book. In fact I don't think there were any people in this book I even liked let alone rooted for.-Well, maybe her Grandmother who is not integral to the plot but at least had a heart. Overall the book left me confused;Was it a cautionary tale of the pitfalls in Hollywood or a meditation on how Jews perceive themselves versus the idealized world of the WASP they're perpetuating in the media? Maybe both, or neither one. Ultimately the only thing I learned was that Hollywood is full of hateful, unhappy people.
