A long & not very exciting story about a group of people that come together just as the 2nd Iraq war was starting. This is in Hollywood and it starts at an aging but still well known movie director's house with his wife, his ex-wife and her lover and the director and ex-wife's daughter, the ex-wife's mother and friend, the director's agent, the current wife's son, and another one or two in there. Mostly just dialogue going on and then they move to a newly renovated mansion of a Russian billionaire that wants the director to do a movie for him. More dialogue. Some interesting parts but mostly just slow and lots of lecturing going on. Not really what I liked or enjoyed. Book was on my shelf for several years so a couple months back figured now was the time. Barely made it through, almost quit a several points & was set aside for weeks at a time. I finished it around 1st of Sept but just now logging it in.
I have already posted it on PBS, it is the only hardback copy in system. Maybe it goes at some point.
