Many Critics Consider It With F. Scott Fitzgerald'S Unfinished Masterpiece The Last Tycoon (1941) Among The Best Novels Written About Hollywood.

Tod Tries To Seduce Faye Greener; She Is Seventeen. Her Protector Is An Old Man Named Homer Simpson. Tod Finds Work On A Film Called Prophetically The Burning Of Los Angeles, And The Dark Comic Tale Ends In An Apocalyptic Mob Riot Outside A Hollywood Premiere, As The System Runs Out Of Control.
