"The personal and professional struggles of McMurtry's lively protagonist Jill Peel, a director in 1970s Hollywood, takes on new resonance in the twenty-first century. Forty years ago, Larry McMurtry journeyed from the sprawling ranches of his early work to the provocative Sunset Strip, creating a Hollywood fable that is both immediate and relevant in today's dynamic cultural climate"-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

I picked this up from a Little Free Library at the park we visit daily for the children's swings. Written in 3 sections, from different characters' points of view. The first section was pretty interesting, with Joe inttroducing us to a protege--a young female just starting out as a movie director. I could understand why McMurtry has a reputation for being one of the better writer of westerns. But it kind of fell apart when the other characters took over. I pushed thru the middle section, hoping that the final section told by the protege would make it all worthwhile. Unfortunately, it seems that she also was dragged down by the Hollywood scene. ( )
