Nora'S Mother, Marion, A Beautiful But Unsettled Woman, Took Her To New York To Start A New Life One Surrounded By Her Mother'S Lovers And Eccentric Literary Friends Instead Of Movie Stars And Studio Heads.Coast To Coast Is Nora'S Account Of A Childhood Spent Shuttling Between Manhattan And Hollywood. What Emerges Is A Marvelous Portrait Of American Life In The 1940S And 1950S From The Movie Lots Of California To The Cocktail Parties Of The Upper East Side And Also A Touching Story Of A Shrewd, Observant Girl Who Would Grow Up Far Too Fast.

She Also Brings To Life Her Droll, Charming, Talented Father A Thurberesque Character In Hollywood And Her Beautiful And Erratic Mother, A Woman Who Fled The Los Angeles Movie Colony Life But Was Unable To Forget The Husband Who Took Her There.Coast To Coast Is A Wonderfully Written Portrait Of A Fascinating Era And A Child Who Came Of Age In It, Who Had Everything She Wanted Except A Place To Call Home.
