A novel about love, uprootedness, friendship, hope and deception, Dream Junkies presents an America where the chimera chase painfully contrasts with the difficult realities of life. Kitty Roman and Desert Rose, the two main characters of the novel, take us on a fascinating journey through the heart of the American Dream, from New York, filled with intellectual and artistic elites, to glamorous Los Angeles with its movie moguls. Although they have different backgrounds, hopes and ambitions, at the end of the road they find the same thing. A page turner in which self-irony and lucidity blend wonderfully with lyrical interludes, Dreams Junkies, offers the reader a "deconstructed" view of the American dream. The book was first published in Europe and was a best seller for several weeks.
