The valley of the wrists

Book Review by: kittesurf     

Original Author: Jacqueline Susann
This abstract was translated from El Valle de las Muñecas
Chilling story, framed in the New York of between borders of principle of the fifty, although outside written in 1966.Our
young person protagonist, Anne, travels to the city, with desire to eat the world of the spectacle and about five thousand dollars in his pocket, fruit of an inheritance on the part of his ancestor.After happening through that another humiliation, and realizing hipocresia that surrounds that world, does not decay in the attempt and exceeds its own limits, until obtaining what wishes.Stirring dyed black history, far from a happy or unfortunate end.Open end which it invites to think and to meditate, which is left behind an eternal smile and a faithful base of maquillaje, decorated all this, with those marvellous red pills that marked the time.Great work of Jacqueline Susan, born in Filadelfia, that it conquered to the Americans with this, his first novel, obtaining the permanence in the first place, in the best lists and magazines of best sellers during thirty and five weeks consecutive.Ideal for the lovers of the drama and the American black cinema.
