Soft cover. Zustand: As New. First Hawthorne Edition, 2014. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "Reluctantly back home in L.A. after 16 years in Africa, documentary filmmaker Mouse FitzHenry longs for the harsh, teeming jungle life her dark lens took in so lovingly. Wrenched stateside by a family emergency,…with her boyfriend/collaborator in tow, she is instantly beleaguered by a past she leapt continents to escape and a present she can only face armed with reels of celluloid. [] In her rollicking second novel, Karbo reveals familiar subjects--the glitz of Hollywood, the fairy-tale lure of love and marriage--with precision, compassion and humor. Mouse's English paramour Tony adores L.A. and all that it can do for his screenplay. Mouse, caving to maternal pressure, agrees to marry Tony and then proceeds, with the help of an old flame, to film around her unwitting fiancé a documentary on the entire process of their betrothal. A flawless, page-turning story emerges as Mouse and Tony manage--often with hilarious subterfuge--to keep their projects secret from one another. With laugh-aloud moments and a cast of brilliantly drawn characters, this is a tale to treasure." [publisher copy] "A wonderfully comic novel about savvy Hollywood outsiders trying to get in . . . Not only is the plot ingenious, but the writing remains deft all the way through."--The New York Times. "This astringent, humorous novel tackles two subjects ripe for satire: the Hollywood movie industry and marriage--both notoriously fickle institutions requiring blind hope to sustain life."--The Los Angeles Times. "This kind of novel is a devil to pull off . . . and Ms. Karbo has done her job brilliantly."--The New York Times Book Review. "Anyone who has a sister I think will adore this book. Anybody who appreciates very smart, funny novels will like this book as well. It was one of my favorites when it first came out, and to find it again in a beautiful, beautiful presentation--beautiful cover, everything about it. Hawthorne Books did a fabulous job."--Nancy Pearl, NPR. Pristine paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, French flaps, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine. Quite presentable.
