I love novels about Hollywood and I jumped at the chance to write about 5 of my faves for @wsj: wsj.com/articles/five-… Including little-known books by Paula Fox and the guy who wrote They Shoot Horses, Don't They? !!
Others I could have included in a top 10: My Face for the World to See by Alfred Hayes; Laura Lamont’s Life in Pictures by @emmastraub; The Age of Dreaming by Nina Revoyr; You or Someone Like You by Chandler Burr; The Disenchanted by Budd Schulberg; & of course Play it as it Lays
@emmastraub The goal of this list was to introduce readers to some Hollywood novels they might not have heard of. That’s why the extremely famous favorite novel(s) you are asking about are not on it.
