Autor Ella Berman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 iul 2021
At the height of her career and on the eve of her first Golden Globe nomination, teen star Grace Turner disappeared. Now, tentatively sober and surprisingly numb, Grace is back in Los Angeles after her year of self-imposed exile, determined to be a better person and reconnect with the people she left behind. When she is asked to present a lifetime achievement award to director Able Yorke - the man who controlled her every move for eight years - she realises that she can't run from the secret behind her spectacular crash and burn for much longer. And she's the only one with nothing left to lose.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
They say she owes him everything.
Now she wants to burn it all to the ground.


Grace Turner was one movie away from Hollywood's A-List. So no one understood why, at the height of her career and on the eve of her first Golden Globe nomination, she disappeared.

Now, one year later, Grace is back in Los Angeles and ready to reclaim her life on her own terms.

When Grace is asked to present a lifetime achievement award to director Able Yorke - the man who controlled her every move for eight years - she knows there's only one way she'll be free of the secret that's already taken so much from her.

The Comeback is a moving and provocative story of justice - a true page-turner about a young woman finding the strength and power of her voice, from the author of Reese's Book Club pick Before We Were Innocent.

'A novel so full-blooded, so humane, that the pages feel almost warm to the touch. A clarifying, purifying chronicle of a promising young woman gone astray and the story of her comeback. Grace Turner can do it. You can do it, too.' - A.J. Finn

Recenzii

Ella Berman's debut novel is a Hollywood tale that packs a wallop...the reader is taken on a journey of self-discovery and redemption...Grace Turner dreams big, suffers and soars. A stunning debut
Berman's novel of a young woman recruited far too early in her life into the Hollywood machine may be the smartest book I've read in the past few years...
In this compulsively readable story, Berman smartly picks apart the idea of a perfect victim...It's a tale as old as time, told compassionately through a fresh new lens
A hopeful exploration of dealing with trauma that will have readers looking at celebrity gossip differently
Raw and nuanced... slices straight down to the nerve. A chilling exposé unfolding in real time - I dare anyone to read it without squirming in suspense and in recognition

A raw, gripping and spellbinding account of dangerous secrets, a pining for retribution, and the power of women
A propulsive, timely study of a complicated young woman, trying to put herself back together again in Hollywood's glare. Berman's storytelling is at times darkly funny, at times rage-inducing, always gripping. I read it in 24 hours
A compelling tale of power and justice
Perfectly of-the-moment, it's gripping, witty, and deeply satisfying - the kind of book you lose sleep over, and cancel plans for. I loved it
The perfect mix of timely topics and tabloid drama. We couldn't put this book down
[A] mix of a thrilling page turner with the importance of the #MeToo movement and standing up for what is right... it weaves heavy issues into something unputdownable and enjoyable to read

A powerful and poignant story of a young woman determined to find her voice
The twists and turns and dramatic outcome make it perfect for the big screen
Ella Berman's whip-smart dialogue and pacey story-telling make it into a very special read
