"The theme of McCarthyism threads through this intricately woven novel, which highlights the politics of 1950s Broadway. . . . It's a fascinating and at times heartbreaking look at an era in which lives were upended and careers derailed."--The Christian Science Monitor "A fascinating and wholly immersive celebration of friendship, love, loyalty, and courage during a turbulent and often underrepresented period in American history, The Chelsea Girls will delight. Davis brings her setting to life as she whisks readers away to the iconic Chelsea Hotel and the theater world during the McCarthy era. Richly detailed and transporting, historical fiction fans will love this one!"--Chanel Cleeton, New York Times bestselling author of When We Left Cuba "The Chelsea Girls is an entirely delightful example of Fiona Davis's inventive and winning approach to historical fiction. The dazzling allure of Broadway, the devastating consequences of McCarthyism, the delights of the legendary Chelsea Hotel, and above all the decades-long friendship of Hazel and Maxine--Davis weaves these narrative threads into a memorable, affecting, and marvelously entertaining novel."--Jennifer Robson, internationally bestselling author of The Gown "In her most impressive and ambitious novel yet, Davis has given us an expertly plotted and emotional tale of the aftermath of war, the insidious way that fear-mongering can divide us, and the unexpected ways that art brings us together. The Chelsea Girls is a masterfully crafted story of a bond between two women that is strong enough to overcome the heartache of war, the pressures of fame, and the gut-wrenching betrayal that accompanies dangerous secrets. This is one of the most powerful and moving stories of female friendship I have ever read."--Lynda Cohen Loigman, author of The Wartime Sisters "A dazzling story of loyalty, friendship, and betrayal in 1950s bohemian New York amid the danger of the Red Scare. It will leave readers wishing they could spend a night at the Chelsea Hotel for a taste of Broadway glamour and a well-shaken cocktail."--Julia Kelly, award-winning author of The Light Over London "The Chelsea Girls is the thoroughly engrossing story of an authentic and complex female friendship under the intense pressures of the Cold War. Replete with international secrets and theatrical triumphs, it sings with the nuances, trials, and celebrations of real friendship in the darkest of times. A must-read for you and your best friends!"--Kerri Maher, author of The Kennedy Debutante "We all want friends like 'the Chelsea girls.' A winning mix of historic challenges and enduring ties between two remarkable women makes Fiona Davis's latest novel a must-read."--Stephanie Barron, author of That Churchill Woman "A spellbinding tale of a decades-long friendship between two talented women, presented against a backdrop of political conspiracy, infused with the glamour of Hollywood and Broadway, and set in that ramshackle headquarters of New York bohemia, the iconic Chelsea Hotel. In The Chelsea Girls, the spirits of America's mid-century arts scene rise up to frolic again. Brava!"--Sherill Tippins, author of Inside the Dream Palace: The Life and Times of New York's Legendary Chelsea Hotel "Davis has done us a service with a compelling historical novel that offers perspective to understand today's polarized politics."--Authorlink.com "Through Davis's rich historical detail and characters who light up the page, The Chelsea Girls is a novel that will delight readers and enchant historical fiction fans."--Arizona Foothills Magazine More Praise for Fiona Davis and Her Novels "Fiona Davis in The Masterpiece continues a winning formula that showcases the stories behind New York City landmarks. . . . A hard-to-resist and timely reminder that for far too long the work done by women has been dismissed and disrespected."--USA Today„Über diesen Titel“ kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
